Summary
Introduction The Voice Controlled Accessibility and Testing (VCAT) tool is primarily aimed to help users perform the following tasks:
Navigate the web using voice commands, and Automatically generate Java-Selenium test cases. VCAT is a browser extension that runs in the chrome browser. The tool waits for the user to speak into the microphone and provide commands, and executes those commands on the currently opened web page. The following are requirements in order for VCAT to work properly:
A working microphone is connected to the computer. After following the installation instructions below, the VCAT options page will automatically open every time the chrome browser is launched. Note - the VCAT options tab must be kept open at all times in order for VCAT to accept and execute voice commands. In case the options page is closed, then click on the VCAT icon next to the address bar on the browser and then click on options. When the VCAT tool is installed for the first time, the browser requests permission to access your microphone. You must click "Allow", to let the tool access your microphone. As noted, the VCAT tool executes the commands that are given by the user on the currently active tab.
What to do if VCAT is unresponsive or not able to recognize voice commands? Reducing all background noise will significantly help increase the VCAT tools' voice recognition efficiency. If at any point in time VCAT becomes unresponsive, please close and relaunch the browser.
