kb-testing-strategy

kb-testing-strategy is a skill for Claude Code, Codex from Community-Access/accessibility-agents. It costs 42 tokens per session (1,301 once invoked), scanned A, original, MIT.

A reference guide for choosing accessibility tests, including automated checks, manual review, browser and screen-reader combinations, regression tests, and acceptance criteria. Regression testing checks that later changes do not bring old problems back.

In plain words
What is it for?
It helps plan web accessibility coverage, choose browser and assistive-technology combinations, write user-story requirements, and organise repeat testing.
Why use it?
It clarifies which issues tools can find and which require a person using the interface. It also helps teams define what an accessibility fix must prove before release.

Token cost

What it costs to keep this loaded

Counted locally with the o200k_base tokenizer, which is exact for GPT models; Claude uses its own tokenizer and its counts differ. Treat this as one consistent yardstick across the catalogue rather than a bill. Prices are per million input tokens.

Security

Grade A, and why

kb-testing-strategy scanned grade A with 0 findings against 26 rules in 11 categories — prompt injection, anti-refusal, data exfiltration, privilege escalation, supply chain, agent snooping, system-prompt leakage, SSRF and excessive agency — measured 1mo ago.

A static scan of the body, not an audit. Every finding is printed with the line that produced it so you can judge whether it matters here. A mod is markdown that instructs an agent; that is exactly why what it instructs is worth reading.

Nothing flagged

None of the 26 patterns this scan looks for appear in this file: no shell pipes, no recursive deletes, no credential paths, no hidden text, no instruction-override or anti-refusal phrasing, no agent-config snooping. That is not a guarantee, it is the absence of the things that are checkable.

Testing Strategy Skill

Decision frameworks for accessibility testing — when to use automated tools vs. manual testing, which screen reader + browser combinations to test, and how to write accessibility acceptance criteria.


Automated vs. Manual Testing Coverage

Each row, with what automated tools catch (~30-40%) and what requires manual testing (~60-70%).

What Automated Tools Catch (~30-40%) What Requires Manual Testing (~60-70%)
Missing alt text on images Alt text quality and accuracy
Missing form labels Label clarity and helpfulness
Color contrast ratios (computed) Color contrast in context (gradients, images)
Missing lang attribute Correct language identification
Duplicate IDs Logical reading order
Missing ARIA roles on custom widgets Correct ARIA role for the interaction pattern
Heading hierarchy violations Heading text meaningfulness
Empty links and buttons Link/button text descriptiveness
Missing table headers Table caption and header association quality
Syntax errors in ARIA Screen reader announcement correctness

Browser + Screen Reader Compatibility Matrix

Primary Test Combinations (Required)

Each screen reader, with its browser, OS and priority.

Screen Reader Browser OS Priority
NVDA Firefox Windows Must test
NVDA Chrome Windows Must test
JAWS Chrome Windows Must test
VoiceOver Safari macOS Must test
VoiceOver Safari iOS Must test
TalkBack Chrome Android Should test

Secondary (Nice to Have)

Each screen reader, with its browser and OS.

Narrator Edge Windows

What this file has done since we first saw it

Hashed on every crawl. A supply-chain change to an agent config is a question of when, not whether, so the history is kept rather than the latest state alone.
