The single screen is similar to the Variables screen in the Equality Explorer sim, but has 2 variables (x,y) instead on 1 variable (1). You should do a full dev test on this screen.
- Click every single button.
- If there is sound, make sure it works.
- Make sure you can't lose anything.
- Play with the sim normally.
- Try to break the sim.
- Try to include browser version numbers
- If there is a console available, check for errors and include them in the Problem Description.
- Run through the string tests on at least one platform, especially if it is about to go to rc.
- Check the Game Up harness on one platform.
PhET-iO features
What to Test
- Make sure that public files do not have password protection. Use a private browser for this.
- Make sure that private files do have password protection. Use a private browser for this.
- Make sure standalone sim is working properly.
- Make sure the wrapper index is working properly.
- Make sure each wrapper is working properly.
- Launch the simulation in Studio with ?stringTest=xss and make sure the sim doesn't navigate to youtube
- For newer PhET-iO wrapper indices, save the "basic example of a functional wrapper" as a .html file and open it. Make
sure the simulation loads without crashing or throwing errors.
Accessibility features
What to Test
- Specific instructions can be found above.
- Make sure the accessibility (a11y) feature that is being tested doesn't negatively affect the sim in any way. Here is
a list of features that may be supported in this test:
- Alternative Input
- Interactive Description
- Sound and Sonification
- Pan and Zoom
- Mobile Description
- Voicing
- Test all possible forms of input.
- Test all mouse/trackpad inputs.
- Test all touchscreen inputs.
- Test all keyboard navigation inputs (if applicable).
- Test all forms of input with a screen reader (if applicable).
Screen Readers
This sim may support screen readers. If you are unfamiliar with screen readers, please ask Katie to introduce you to
screen readers. If you simply need a refresher on screen readers, please consult the
[QA Book](https://github.com/phetsims/QA/blob/main/documentation/qa-book.md), which should have all of the information
you need as well as a link to a screen reader tutorial made by Jesse. Otherwise, look over the a11y view before opening
the simulation. Once you've done that, open the simulation and make sure alerts and descriptions work as intended.
Platforms and Screen Readers to Be Tested
- Windows 10 + Latest Chrome + Latest JAWS
- Windows 10 + Latest Firefox + Latest NVDA
- macOS + Safari + VoiceOver
- iOS + Safari + VoiceOver (only if specified in testing issue)
Critical Screen Reader Information
We are tracking known screen reader bugs in
[here](https://github.com/phetsims/qa/blob/main/documentation/accessibility-bugs.md). If you find a screen reader bug,
please check it against this list.
Keyboard Navigation
This sim supports keyboard navigation. Please make sure it works as intended on all platforms by itself and with a
screen reader.
Magnification
This sim supports magnification with pinch and drag gestures on touch screens, keyboard shortcuts, and mouse/wheel
controls. Please test magnfication and make sure it is working as intended and well with the use cases of the
simulation. Due to the way screen readers handle user input, magnification is NOT expected to work while using a screen
reader so there is no need to test this case.
