# Accessibility Testing and Remediation

## Configuration

- **WCAG Level**: ${wcag_level:AA}
- **Target Component**: ${component_name:Application}
- **Compliance Standard**: ${compliance_standard:WCAG 2.1}
- **Testing Scope**: ${testing_scope:full-audit}
- **Screen Reader**: ${screen_reader:NVDA}

## WCAG 2.1 Quick Reference

### Compliance Levels
| Level | Requirement | Common Issues |
|-------|-------------|---------------|
| A | Minimum baseline | Missing alt text, no keyboard access, missing form labels |
| ${wcag_level:AA} | Standard target | Contrast < 4.5:1, missing focus indicators, poor heading structure |
| AAA | Enhanced | Contrast < 7:1, sign language, extended audio description |

### Four Principles (POUR)
1. **Perceivable**: Content available to senses (alt text, captions, contrast)
2. **Operable**: UI navigable by all input methods (keyboard, touch, voice)
3. **Understandable**: Content and UI predictable and readable
4. **Robust**: Works with current and future assistive technologies

## Violation Severity Matrix

```
CRITICAL (fix immediately):
  - No keyboard access to interactive elements
  - Missing form labels
  - Images without alt text
  - Auto-playing audio without controls
  - Keyboard traps

HIGH (fix before release):
  - Contrast ratio below ${min_contrast_ratio:4.5}:1 (text) or 3:1 (large text)
  - Missing skip links
  - Incorrect heading hierarchy
  - Focus not visible
  - Missing error identification

MEDIUM (fix in next sprint):
  - Inconsistent navigation
  - Missing landmarks
  - Poor link text ("click here")
  - Missing language attribute
  - Complex tables without headers

LOW (backlog):
  - Timing adjustments
  - Multiple ways to find content
  - Context-sensitive help
```

## Testing Decision Tree

```
Start: What are you testing?
|
+-- New Component
|   +-- Has interactive elements? --> Keyboard Navigation Checklist
|   +-- Has text content? --> Check contrast + heading structure
|   +-- Has images? --> Verify alt text appropriateness
|   +-- Has forms? --> Form Accessibility Checklist
|
+-- Existing Page/Feature
|   +-- Run automated scan first (axe-core, Lighthouse)
|   +-- Manual keyboard walkthrough
|   +-- Screen reader verification
|   +-- Color contrast spot-check
|
+-- Third-party Widget
    +-- Check ARIA implementation
    +-- Verify keyboard support
    +-- Test with screen reader
    +-- Document limitations
```

## Keyboard Navigation Checklist

```markdown
[ ] All interactive elements reachable via Tab
[ ] Tab order follows visual/logical flow
[ ] Focus indicator visible (${focus_indicator_width:2}px+ outline, 3:1 contrast)
[ ] No keyboard traps (can Tab out of all elements)
[ ] Skip link as first focusable element
[ ] Enter activates buttons and links
[ ] Space activates checkboxes and buttons
[ ] Arrow keys navigate within components (tabs, menus, radio groups)
[ ] Escape closes modals and dropdowns
[ ] Modals trap focus until dismissed
```

## Screen Reader Testing Patterns

### Essential Announcements to Verify
```
Interactive Elements:
  Button: "[label], button"
  Link: "[text], link"
  Checkbox: "[label], checkbox, [checked/unchecked]"
  Radio: "[label], radio button, [selected], [position] of [total]"
  Combobox: "[label], combobox, [collapsed/expanded]"

Dynamic Content:
  Loading: Use aria-busy="true" on container
  Status: Use role="status" for non-critical updates
  Alert: Use role="alert" for critical messages
  Live regions: aria-live="${aria_live_politeness:polite}"

Forms:
  Required: "required" announced with label
  Invalid: "invalid entry" with error message
  Instructions: Announced with label via aria-describedby
```

### Testing Sequence
1. Navigate entire page with Tab key, listening to announcements
2. Test headings navigation (H key in screen reader)
3. Test landmark navigation (D key / rotor)
4. Test tables (T key, arrow keys within table)
5. Test forms (F key, complete form submission)
6. Test dynamic content updates (verify live regions)

## Color Contrast Requirements

| Text Type | Minimum Ratio | Enhanced (AAA) |
|-----------|---------------|----------------|
| Normal text (<${large_text_threshold:18}pt) | ${min_contrast_ratio:4.5}:1 | 7:1 |
| Large text (>=${large_text_threshold:18}pt or 14pt bold) | 3:1 | 4.5:1 |
| UI components & graphics | 3:1 | N/A |
| Focus indicators | 3:1 | N/A |

### Contrast Check Process
```
1. Identify all foreground/background color pairs
2. Calculate contrast ratio: (L1 + 0.05) / (L2 + 0.05)
   where L1 = lighter luminance, L2 = darker luminance
3. Common failures to check:
   - Placeholder text (often too light)
   - Disabled state (exempt but consider usability)
   - Links within text (must distinguish from text)
   - Error/success states on colored backgrounds
   - Text over images (use overlay or text shadow)
```

## ARIA Implementation Guide

### First Rule of ARIA
Use native HTML elements when possible. ARIA is for custom widgets only.

```html
<!-- WRONG: ARIA on native element -->
<div role="button" tabindex="0">Submit</div>

<!-- RIGHT: Native button -->
<button type="submit">Submit</button>
```

### When ARIA is Needed
```html
<!-- Custom tabs -->
<div role="tablist">
  <button role="tab" aria-selected="true" aria-controls="panel1">Tab 1</button>
  <button role="tab" aria-selected="false" aria-controls="panel2">Tab 2</button>
</div>
<div role="tabpanel" id="panel1">Content 1</div>
<div role="tabpanel" id="panel2" hidden>Content 2</div>

<!-- Expandable section -->
<button aria-expanded="false" aria-controls="content">Show details</button>
<div id="content" hidden>Expandable content</div>

<!-- Modal dialog -->
<div role="dialog" aria-modal="true" aria-labelledby="title">
  <h2 id="title">Dialog Title</h2>
  <!-- content -->
</div>

<!-- Live region for dynamic updates -->
<div aria-live="${aria_live_politeness:polite}" aria-atomic="true">
  <!-- Status messages injected here -->
</div>
```

### Common ARIA Mistakes
```
- role="button" without keyboard support (Enter/Space)
- aria-label duplicating visible text
- aria-hidden="true" on focusable elements
- Missing aria-expanded on disclosure buttons
- Incorrect aria-controls reference
- Using aria-describedby for essential information
```

## Form Accessibility Patterns

### Required Form Structure
```html
<form>
  <!-- Explicit label association -->
  <label for="email">Email address</label>
  <input type="email" id="email" name="email"
         aria-required="true"
         aria-describedby="email-hint email-error">
  <span id="email-hint">We'll never share your email</span>
  <span id="email-error" role="alert"></span>

  <!-- Group related fields -->
  <fieldset>
    <legend>Shipping address</legend>
    <!-- address fields -->
  </fieldset>

  <!-- Clear submit button -->
  <button type="submit">Complete order</button>
</form>
```

### Error Handling Requirements
```
1. Identify the field in error (highlight + icon)
2. Describe the error in text (not just color)
3. Associate error with field (aria-describedby)
4. Announce error to screen readers (role="alert")
5. Move focus to first error on submit failure
6. Provide correction suggestions when possible
```

## Mobile Accessibility Checklist

```markdown
Touch Targets:
[ ] Minimum ${touch_target_size:44}x${touch_target_size:44} CSS pixels
[ ] Adequate spacing between targets (${touch_target_spacing:8}px+)
[ ] Touch action not dependent on gesture path

Gestures:
[ ] Alternative to multi-finger gestures
[ ] Alternative to path-based gestures (swipe)
[ ] Motion-based actions have alternatives

Screen Reader (iOS/Android):
[ ] accessibilityLabel set for images and icons
[ ] accessibilityHint for complex interactions
[ ] accessibilityRole matches element behavior
[ ] Focus order follows visual layout
```

## Automated Testing Integration

### Pre-commit Hook
```bash
#!/bin/bash
# Run axe-core on changed files
npx axe-core-cli --exit src/**/*.html

# Check for common issues
grep -r "onClick.*div\|onClick.*span" src/ && \
  echo "Warning: Click handler on non-interactive element" && exit 1
```

### CI Pipeline Checks
```yaml
accessibility-audit:
  script:
    - npx pa11y-ci --config .pa11yci.json
    - npx lighthouse --accessibility --output=json
  artifacts:
    paths:
      - accessibility-report.json
  rules:
    - if: '$CI_PIPELINE_SOURCE == "merge_request_event"'
```

### Minimum CI Thresholds
```
axe-core: 0 critical violations, 0 serious violations
Lighthouse accessibility: >= ${lighthouse_a11y_threshold:90}
pa11y: 0 errors (warnings acceptable)
```

## Remediation Priority Framework

```
Priority 1 (This Sprint):
  - Blocks user task completion
  - Legal compliance risk
  - Affects many users

Priority 2 (Next Sprint):
  - Degrades experience significantly
  - Automated tools flag as error
  - Violates ${wcag_level:AA} requirement

Priority 3 (Backlog):
  - Minor inconvenience
  - Violates AAA only
  - Affects edge cases

Priority 4 (Enhancement):
  - Improves usability for all
  - Best practice, not requirement
  - Future-proofing
```
