The AccChecker API

  • Article

The AccChecker API supports automated testing. After screening an application by using manual testing with the AccChecker GUI, you can write automated tests that incorporate the message and suppression logs created with the GUI tool.

The following code example demonstrates how to use the AccChecker API to test tabbing functionality in the Windows Firewall control panel application.

using System;
using System.Collections.Generic;
using System.Linq;
using System.Text;
using AccCheck.Logging;
 
public class TestCases : TestBase
{
    public void AccessibilityTestCase()
    {
        //  get our user interface ready for AccChecker
        Setup();
 
        //  AccChecker's class representing verifications that you can run
        AccCheck.Verification.VerificationManager vm = new AccCheck.Verification.VerificationManager();
 
        //  create a console logger to get output in the console
        ConsoleLogger consoleLogger = new ConsoleLogger();
 
        //  add AccChecker's Console Logger
        vm.AddLogger(consoleLogger);
 
        //  disable all verifications
        vm.DisableVerifications(AccCheck.Verification.VerificationFilter.All);
 
        // enable the ones we want to run
        vm.EnableRoutine("CheckTabbing");
 
        //  run it against the firewall
        vm.ExecuteEnabled(_fireWallHwnd);
 
        //  check if the verification failed by looking at the logger
        if (consoleLogger.ErrorCount > 0)
        {
            Console.WriteLine("Test failed!");
 
            Console.WriteLine("Error count = " + consoleLogger.ErrorCount);
        }
 
        // cleanup our user interface
        Cleanup();
    }
