Over the past decade, there has been a tremendous development in e-publishing tools. The Arab world tendency towards electronic publishing has facilitated the prosperity of Arabic e-publishing over the Internet. Likewise, it has enabled the ordinary user to deploy documents, letters, opinions, and ideas with freedom and ease of use. Although freedom of expression should be guaranteed to everyone, it may be used to disseminate false or distorted information. This may lead to the loss of ordinary user's confidence in e-content. However, the user's confidence in e-content will increase if the credibility of the content is emphasized. There are many factors that challenge this task including not only the rapidly growth of Arabic digital publishing, the absent from control over electronic content, and the lack of e-publishing regulations and laws, but also how to develop an efficient framework to confirm the digital content authenticity. Therefore, the need to monitor the credibility of Internet content while maintaining freedom of expression to its users has become an urgent matter of debate. A flexible framework needs to be developed that will overcome these issues and allow for a comprehensible and comfortable content validation environment that would satisfy the end users' desires. This thesis proposes a framework that serves to confirm fundamental text authenticity in Arabic scripts on the Internet. This framework will demonstrate the design and the development of new quotes verification algorithm and the necessary components of framework design, development and implementation based on Service Oriented architecture.

With the explosion in usage of big data, stakes are high for companies to develop workflows that translate the data into business value. Those data transformations are continuously updated and refined in order to meet the evolving business needs, and it is imperative to ensure that a new version of a workflow still produces the correct output. This study focuses on the validation of big data in a real-world scenario, and implements a validation tool that compares two databases that hold the results produced by different versions of a workflow in order to detect and prevent potential unwanted alterations, with row-based and column-based statistics being used to validate the two versions. The tool was shown to provide accurate results in test scenarios, providing leverage to companies that need to validate the outputs of the workflows. In addition, by automating this process, the risk of human error is eliminated, and it has the added benefit of improved speed compared to the more labour-intensive manual alternative. All this allows for a more agile way of performing updates on the data transformation workflows by improving on the turnaround time of the validation process.

Bakgrund: Webbtillgänglighet är mer aktuellt än någonsin med införandet av nya lagkrav och då webben har en så viktig roll i samhället. Bristande tillgänglighet på webbplatser kan orsaka problem för individer med olika funktionsvariationer att interagera med webben och vara delaktiga på lika villkor.  Syfte: Syftet med uppsatsen är att undersöka hur tillgänglighetstester av webbsidor kan genomföras för att säkerställa att de lagkrav som finns följs, samt att undersöka vilka delar av testprocessen som kan automatiseras. Metod: Vi har använt oss av en kvalitativ studie där datainsamlingen har skett i form av intervjuer. För att utröna vilka delar av testprocessen som kan automatiseras utvecklades en webbsida med ett antal tillgänglighetsbrister, som evaluerades med olika valideringsverktyg. Resultat och slutsatser: Av de automatiska valideringsverktyg som utvärderades presterade Axe DevTools i kombination med Axe Linter bäst och upptäckte flera tillgänglighetsbrister. Att automatisera tillgänglighetstestning underlättar testarbetet och medför att många tillgänglighetsbrister upptäcks som kan vara svåra att upptäcka manuellt, vilket är ett argument att för att implementera det i testprocessen. / Background: Web accessibility is more relevant than ever with the introduction of new legal requirements and when the web has such an important role in society. Lack of accessibility on websites can cause problems for individuals with different functional variations to interact with the web and participate on equal terms. Purpose: The purpose with the essay is to investigate how accessibility tests of websites can be carried out to ensure that the legal requirements are complied with, and to investigate which parts of the testing process can be automated. Method: The authors have used a qualitative study where data collection has taken place in the form of interviews. To find out which parts of the test process can be automated, a website was developed with a number of accessibility shortcomings that various validation tools evaluated. Results and conclusions: Of the automatic validation tools that were evaluated, Axe DevTools in combination with Axe Linter performed best and discovered several accessibility shortcomings. Automating accessibility testing facilitates the test work and means that many accessibility shortcomings are discovered that can be difficult to detect manually, which is an argument for implementing it in the testing process.
