Windows Presentation Foundation Tools : UI Spy (UISpy.exe)

The UI Spy tool enables developers and testers to view and interact with the user interface (UI) elements of an application. By viewing the application's UI hierarchical structure, property values, and raised events, developers and testers can verify that the UI they are creating is programmatically accessible to assistive technology devices such as screen readers. 

UI Spy uses the UI Automation libraries. UI Automation is the new accessibility framework for Microsoft Windows.

Using UI Spy, developers and testers can check an application's level of accessibility by verifying the following:

  • UI Automation property values for UI items.

  • Control pattern implementation.

  • UI Automation event information.

  • Navigation and keyboard focus.
