The problem it solves

Testing accessibility features can be time-consuming and often requires manual intervention. Automating this process can enhance efficiency and ensure consistent results, but many are unaware of how to implement such solutions effectively.

How it flows
  1. Automate testing
  2. Use VoiceOver
  3. Capture outputs
  4. Implement Gherkin
  5. Enhance accessibility

Step-by-step setup

  1. Set Up Claude Code

    Begin by configuring Claude Code to interact with VoiceOver, ensuring that the necessary permissions are granted for automation.

  2. Create Gherkin Scripts

    Develop Gherkin scripts that outline the expected behavior of the screen reader, allowing for structured testing scenarios.

  3. Run Automated Tests

    Execute the automated scripts to control VoiceOver and capture its spoken outputs, comparing them against the expected results.
