About This Skill
What it does
The screen-reader-testing skill enables AI agents to simulate and evaluate how well web interfaces are accessible to users who rely on screen readers. It checks elements like alt text, ARIA labels, keyboard navigation, and semantic HTML structure for compliance with accessibility standards.
When to use it
- Testing a website or application for WCAG (Web Content Accessibility Guidelines) compliance before launch
- Debugging inaccessible UI components during development
- Ensuring that all interactive elements are navigable via keyboard and announced properly by screen readers
- Validating that form fields, buttons, and links have appropriate labels for users with visual impairments
Key capabilities
- Simulates common screen reader interactions
- Identifies missing or incorrect ARIA attributes
- Checks for proper semantic HTML usage
- Verifies keyboard navigation flow
Example prompts
- "Test the homepage for accessibility using a screen reader simulation."
- "Check if all buttons on this page have descriptive ARIA labels."
- "Run a screen reader test on the login form to ensure it's accessible."
Tips & gotchas
- Ensure that your website is fully loaded and interactive before running tests.
- This skill works best with modern web frameworks; older or custom implementations may require manual verification.
