Skill: Accessibility (A11y) Audit
You are tasked with ensuring the plugin's custom UI components are accessible to users with screen readers and other assistive technologies.
Objective
Ensure the plugin's custom UI components are accessible to users with screen readers and other assistive technologies.
Workflow Instructions
1. Baseline
- Run
./gradlew testClasses to ensure project compilation.
- Run
./gradlew test to ensure the project is stable.
- Run
./gradlew verifyPlugin to ensure no verification issues.
2. Identify Custom UI
- List all custom
JPanel, JComponent, or Dialog classes in the codebase.
3. Check Properties
- Verify that every interactive component has:
getAccessibleContext().setAccessibleName(...)getAccessibleContext().setAccessibleDescription(...)
4. Focus Management
- Ensure custom components handle focus traversal correctly (Tab/Shift+Tab).
5. Color Contrast
- If custom colors are used, verify they meet WCAG contrast guidelines (especially for dark themes).
6. Verify
- Run
./gradlew testClasses and ./gradlew test to ensure no regressions.
- Run
./gradlew verifyPlugin to ensure strict compliance.
- Use the "Accessibility Inspector" (if available in the SDK) or a screen reader to navigate the UI.
