Test Suites for nsIAccessible Extension Interface

Introduction:
nsIAccessible Extension Interface is based on nsIAccessible interface.It includes:
  • nsIAccessibleAction
  • nsIAccessibleEditableText
  • nsIAccessibleHyperLink
  • nsIAccessibleHyperText
  • nsIAccessibleSelection
  • nsIAccessibleTable
  • nsIAccessibleText
  • nsIAccessibleValue
nsIAccessible extension interface is implemented by a variety of classes for each of the various objects in HTML and XUL. Each class is tailored to the specific abilities and properties of the HTML and XUL objects it applies to.


Features Tested:
nsIAccessible extension interface has several Attibutes and Methods. This test suites cover almost all the attibutes and methods.
nsIAccessibleAction:
n/a
nsIAccessibleEditableText:
copyText(), cutText(), deleteText(), insertText(), pasteText(), setTextcontents()
nsIAccessibleHyperLink:
getEndIndex, getStartIndex, links, getObject(), getURI(), isValid()
nsIAccessibleHyperText:
links, getLink(), getLinkIndex()
nsIAccessibleSelection:
selectionCount, addSelection(), clearSelection(), isChildSelected(), refSelection(), removeSelection(), selectAllSelection()
nsIAccessibleTable:
caption, columnHeader, columns, rowHeader, rows, summary, cellRefAt(), getcolumnAtIndex(), getColumnDescription(), getcolumnExtentAt(), getIndexAt(), getRowAtIndex(), getRowDescription(), getRowExtentAt(), getSelectedColumns(), getSelectedRows(), isCellSelected(), isColumnSelected(), isRowSelected()
nsIAccessibleText:
caretOffset, characterCount, addSelection(), getCharacterAtOffset(), getSelectionBounds(), getText(), getTextAfterOffset(), getTextAtOffset(), getTextBeforeOffset(), removeSelection(), setCaretOffset(), setSelectionBounds()
nsIAccessibleValue:
currentValue, maximumValue, minimumValue, setCurrentValue()


Approach:
The test cases are written in JavaScript embedded in HTML and XUL for HTML and XUL Elements respectively.
