Testable statements - Progress update

<MichielBijl> scribe: MichielBijl

<joanie> https://www.w3.org/wiki/ARIA_1.1_Testable_Statements

<joanie> "volunteer name here": 131

<joanie> "stefan": 37

^ list of people and their assigned objects

JD: We need to get volunteers for those 131 items

<joanie> Updated Milestones: https://www.w3.org/WAI/ARIA/project

We’ll hit PR Feb 2017

That’s like, now…

MC: That’s the latest milestone that we discussed and agreed to

If it raises concerns if we don’t meet them

Should tell Philippe if we’re not going to meet them

JD: If you can volunteer for part of these testable statements that be great

We could work together on the same issue

If someone wrote like the markup for issues

SS: I see that the “has tests” is still in the document

JD: Joseph went through it

JS: I’m working my way through them when I can

JD: Reason we keep flags in there, it’s kind of a hack for lack of a better word for it

Anything with parenthesis basically says “Don’t generate actual tests”

MB: Is it just writing mark-up?

<joanie> https://www.w3.org/wiki/ARIA_1.1_Testable_Statements#combobox_haspopup_unspecified

<joanie> https://www.w3.org/wiki/ARIA_1.1_Testable_Statements#aria-haspopup

SS: The code part is for humans?

They read and do a manual test based on that?

The next part is for machines?

JD: Partly correct

The first part gets pulled into Shane’s tool

The part that surrounds the code is not processed

ATTA progress updates

JG: We installed WPT on Windows

Build a simple adapter

We can now get the information from WPT

<joanie> scribe: joanie

JD: Regarding the Mac, I now have the core accessibility API stuff down. I have local code which can print accessibility trees, listen for accessibility events, locate specific elements, get the desired properties of a specified element, etc. In other words, I am able to do the core functionality needed in an ATTA. And this works both with Safari and Chrome Canary. The one blocking bit is that Chrome Canary

doesn't expose the HTML id attribute, and we're counting on that attribute being present to locate the element specified in the testable statements. I've emailed Dominic Mazzoni (Google accessibility developer) and told him how Safari exposes it. He said he'd see about doing the same in Chrome so we can do automated testing there. My next step is to turn what I've got into an actual ATTA which works with

WPT. I think that will be pretty easy as the Mac code I've done is in Python 3 and the Linux ATTA I've written which is fully functional is also written in Python 3.

<scribe> scribe: MichielBijl

JD: **Correction**: text that prefixed code is processed by Shane’s tool.

JD: Any questions on this?

Thank you all, that’s a wrap
