  Tutorial: Accessibility Validation for Java on Eclipse

A suite of Eclipse plug-ins used to inspect and validate the accessibility of Java-based, rich-client GUIs (Swing or SWT) and Eclipse plug-ins.

Tutorial Details:

Version 1.1.0: Simplified installation, configuration, user interface; more integrated and consistent with Eclipse; support for validations through Java and Plug-in Perspectives; support for Eclipse 3.2.

What is IBM Rule-based Accessibility Validation Environment (RAVEN)?
RAVEN, an Eclipse feature consisting of three plug-ins, is a tool for inspecting Java™-based, rich-client graphical user interfaces (GUIs) and validating them for accessibility. The validation functions of RAVEN were formerly part of the Reflexive User Interface Builder (RIB) (another alphaWorks technology), which is now concentrated on specifying, rendering, and generating GUIs through XML-based RIB documents.

RAVEN is part of the Emerging Technologies Toolkit (ETTK), a special collection of emerging technologies from IBM's software development and research labs.

How does it work?
RAVEN uses an innovative Aspect-Oriented Programming (AOP) technique to inspect the application as it is executed; no source code is required. This tool supports Java AWT or Swing and Eclipse Standard Widget Toolkit (SWT) GUIs, including Eclipse plug-ins.

This technology runs on Java 1.4.2 and above and Eclipse 3.0.1 and above. Due to a dependency on a Windows® DLL, RAVEN currently works only on Windows NT and Windows XP.
