MacOS

Setup

Launch Theme by one of these ways:

  • ctrl+option+cmd+8
  • On Mac OS X Tiger - from System Preferences panel, select Universal Access. In the Display section select Black on White or White on Black. See slider to modify the contrast settings, or to use grayscale.


Windows

Setup

Launch Theme by one of these ways:

  • alt+shift+PrintScreen
  • control panel, Accessibility Options, select display pane. Check high contrast checkbox to turn on high contrast mode, click OK.


On Linux and Solaris (GNOME Environment)

The scenario where a user has a lesser degree of Visual Impairment is matched to a GNOME environment with an accessibility-enhanced theme, such as High Contrast Large Print Inverse. This user can use a standard keyboard and mouse, but requires increased definition, size and clarity of the widgets, icons and fonts in his or her Gnome desktop.

Setup

Launch Theme by one of these ways:

  1. Type in terminal : #gnome-theme-manager
  2. Launch menu->Preferences->Theme, and select HighContrastLargePrintInverse

Test Aim

Applications should be customizable in terms of color, font and display layout. GNOME has a special set of themes available for visually impaired. The test aim here is:

  • To ensure that the desktop and the applications respect these themes.
  • A user should be able to override the default settings for an application or the desktop as a whole.

Tester Notes

  • Work with an application across theme, font and size changes and ensure that the themes are respected.
  • Use the inverse theme and ensure that all information is available. This is equivalent to printing screen shots to a black and white printer and checking for information loss.
  • Work with all themes and look out for any discrepancies in the user interface of the application when themes are changed.
  • Check if any information is provided only through colour.
  • Change the font and check if the settings are maintained.
