• Try to include browser version numbers
• If there is a console available, check for errors and include them in the Problem Description.

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
  • Sound and Sonification
  • Pan and Zoom

• Test all possible forms of input.

  • Test all mouse/trackpad inputs.
  • Test all touchscreen inputs.
  • Test all keyboard navigation inputs (if applicable).

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.

@KatieWoe Since this is a dev test, we want to minimize the time between publishing the dev version and creating the 1.3 release branch. So 1.3.0-dev.7 has not been published yet. Let us know when you're ready to start, and @AgustinVallejo or I can publish.

[arouinfar]

For PhET-iO testing, please refer to the examples.md on main, rather than the version linked from the wrapper index page. Thanks!
