Does the Appium Flutter Driver support accessibility testing? #610

Hi All,

I was automating flutter mobile app using appium-flutter-driver. It works great. Now I would like to perform accessibility testing for flutter mobile app for both iOS and Android. Does appium-flutter-driver supports accessibility testing ?

Please help me with some pointers.

Thanks!

What kind of behavior is expected? For example, if an element has content-description in Android, such a thing? Then, you can check with uia2/xcuitest driver rather than this since uia2/xcuitest can find elements -> these elements are exposed for accessibility functionality (usually)

@KazuCocoa, The application has accessibility features Screen Readers(Talk back,Voice over), Large Fonts, Contrast etc. These all are flutter elements having some semantic label or other finder class elements.

Then, if you could find these elements with accessibility id locator with NATIVE_APP context in this driver or UIA2/XCUITest drivers, OS usually can detect them for Voice over etc. Font size etc depends on https://api.flutter.dev/flutter/flutter_driver/flutter_driver-library.html that is provided by Flutter and this driver depends on that.
