Abra releases Abra SDK

Accessibility shouldn't be an afterthought. It should be part of every build, every test run, every pull request. That's why we're bringing the same test engine that powers Abra Desktop directly into your automated testing pipeline. The Abra SDK is a native SDK for Android and iOS that lets you run accessibility checks right from your existing tests.

Seamless integration

The Abra SDK is built natively for each platform. Swift on iOS, Kotlin on Android. No wrappers, no bridges, no runtime surprises. Add the dependency, invoke Abra's test engine, and you're up and running.

It integrates with multiple native mobile testing frameworks:

• Espresso and UiAutomator on Android

• XCUITest on iOS

Using a different testing framework? Let us know.

Because the SDK hooks into the accessibility layer, it can test any app regardless of how it was built. SwiftUI, Jetpack Compose, Flutter, React Native, .NET MAUI, we have got you covered.

Tests run on real devices or emulators, locally or in CI/CD. Results flow back to your IDE and, optionally, to the Abra Dashboard to track issues over time.

Testing rules

The Abra SDK uses the full power of the Abra Test Engine. It can find accessibility issues such as:

• Focusable element name present (Android + iOS)

• Focusable element role present (Android + iOS)

• Focusable element state present (Android + iOS)

• Focusable element value present (Android + iOS)

• Target size (minimum) (Android + iOS)

• Target size (enhanced) (Android + iOS)

• Content can be viewed in portrait orientation (Android + iOS)

• Content can be viewed in landscape orientation (Android + iOS)

Furthermore, the SDK includes 7 rules created by Apple on iOS, and 14 rules created by Google on Android.

Why Abra SDK?

• Native and mobile-first. Not a web tool repurposed for mobile. Every rule is designed for native apps.

• Enterprise-ready. Scales across real devices, emulators and CI/CD pipelines.

• Knowledge-driven. Built on Abra's accessibility expertise, aligned with WCAG.

• Connected ecosystem. Use the SDK on its own, or combine it with Abra Dashboard and Abra Desktop for a complete workflow.
