Have a requirement to make website compatible for visually challenged
people (WCAG 2.0 Compliance).
Found an online tool Achecker,but it seems to be not identifying html 5/bootstrap
properties.
It would be helpful if anybody can recommend any online tool to check whether the
changes made to make website compatible with wcag guidelines are correct?
Thanks
I think the most popular checker is the WAVE WebAim checker: http://wave.webaim.org/
A stricter checker is Cryptzone's CynthiaSays: http://www.cynthiasays.com/
I use both. I start with WebAim and once I've ironed out those issues I move onto Cryptzone.
I recommend the following web accessibility evaluation tools:
WAVE Web Accessibility Tool
Web Accessibility Checker
AccessiBe - Automation tool
to check the website if you want to be more detailed about the code.
However, sometimes evaluation tools may report illogic warnings that is why it's good to also trust your knowledge about WCAG standards and usability for people with disabilities.
For example here (scroll down) Build a successful website for a small business with WCAG 2.0 compliance with WordPress you may check WCAG WordPress themes tested with the tools I recommended.

I need to pass (alert("XSSTest")) this string in all the field to test-penetration testing. even i dont have much idea about this. Presently am doing this entering this text/script manually to each and every field of my web application. Can any one suggest me is there is any tool which can ease this task. I even heard there are many plugin for FF browser available for the same.
You have many options to automate XSS testing.
You can use free and commercial softwares to acheive this. I listed some popular tools below:
Commercial (there may be a trial version)
NetSparker
Acunetix
IBM AppScan
Freeware
Xenotix
BurpSuite
ZedProxy
x5s
Mozilla Firefox AddOn:
XSS Me
Now bear in mind that if you have the source code of the application that you want to test, you may do also static code analysis. This also depends on the technology you are using. Find below some tools for this:
FindBugs
PMD
IBM AppScan (Source)
Of course the lists may continue for many more other tools.

What are the best free uml drawing tools?
All the ones I have found require membership payments and only offer limited functionality based to public users on a trial basis...rubbish!
For my (very simple) needs I used ArgoUML. I'm not an expert about, but I found it enough easy to use. It's open source and, on the web page, you can find a good user guide.
Have a look at StarUML ( http://staruml.sourceforge.net/en/ )
It's free, open source, and incredibly fully featured.
For a full list, check out the ones marked as Open Source here: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_Unified_Modeling_Language_tools
But I'd really recommend StarUML!
For my first two software engineering courses, I used the stand alone version of UMLet, but it is just for diagrams. It exports to standard graphics, or pdf. They also have an eclipse plugin version, but I never used it.
For a no frill drawing tool, I find Google Docs (drawings) pretty good. Note that printing works better under Mozilla than Chrome, strangely enough. In Chrome, I cannot get dashed lines to print.
Try UMLet. Supports Eclipse IDE.

we're working with a client who's parent company is using intershop enfinity 6 as a shopping platform with each sub-brand using their own shops, but they are connected to the "mothership" via some form of api.
now i am facing several problems:
i have no influence on what software is used whatsoever, so i know enfinity is probably a pain in the ass but i have to live with that
i will be old and grey until they manage to get me some contact or documentation from the parent company's it department
apparently there is no chance of acquiring documentation from intershop without being a registered customer. at least i found nothing on their site but the brief mention of "modularity"...
all i want to do is to look up what kind of api (or whatever they use to implement shopping functionality on other sites) this is and if it is in some way standardized, etc... any info helps.
is there anyone with experience on this? i'm sure to get some specs someday but it would be nice to come a bit prepared.
thanks in advance,
anton
You get detailed information only if you have a support / customer account with Intershop. Or you get your hands on an install DVD provided by your client - there you can find a whole set of documents and API documentation. The best information until then would be visiting http://www.intershop.com/enfinity-functionality.html - but it just talk about features, not technology.
(Disclaimer: I work for Intershop)

What tools exist for developing platform indepedent API Documentation?
I'm in the process of designing a proposed API, and want to write documentation in a structured and easily editable way. A lot of the answers I've seen have basically been "Use built in language specific documentation tools", but since I'm designing the API from a 'top-level', rather than implementing it, this isn't so useful. I'm looking for a CMS for API Documentation
I've seen a few suggestions to use PBWiki or Confluence, but I'm not convinced that a plain wiki is the best option, though the version control aspects are nice.
In theory, a Drupal build with CCK for API calls and Views for reading the API, but that's a bit of heavy lifting for what I'm looking for.
Is there a API Documentation Management System out there? What are the best options for writing and managing platform-independent documentation for APIs?
I've seen the related questions for this, but there has yet to be a satisfactory answer.
Any structured text language will do. I'd use latex, and troff is old school.
But you may have missed the point of the suggestion to use doxygen or whatever. If you do that, then writing the documentation is also laying down the scaffold for the eventual implementation. Better still, the example documentation will be in the same format as the eventual real documentation and, you will--of course---use source control on it, won't you? So you'll have a potted history of changes to the spec.

For years I've missed a wiki so everyone could describe the new tools programmed, the servers where they are running, svn information, the internal rules of programming, how-tos, code samples, etc.
The wiki might be used for the dozen of programmers in the company and the externals.
I've been using a pmwiki (easy install) and now I want a better approach.
What wiki do you use? What plug-ins? Do you think there are better systems than wiki for this?
We're using TWiki for internal dev stuff, and I don't particularly like it. I'd rather use MediaWiki, as that's what Wikipedia uses, and more people are familiar with it.
We've been using a TWiki for several years, but it is being retired and replaced by TRAC.
Wen we started using TWiki I had great hopes, but the requirement for a special markup (like here on SO) never caught on with the management and admin types.
TRAC, as a wiki, is no better in that regard, but it suported by our IT guys and brings more tools for the development process.
