Abstract:
For any Website, the look and feel of the page depends on the selection of good color combinations for
Background and Foreground Colors, which are represented in RGB format. In most of the cases, the selection of the colors is
done by choosing 2 extremely different colors, one being light in color and other dark, for example white and black. The web
designers donâ€™t know how the color combination looks like unless they are checked or implemented in the system. The
proposed methodology can help the designers to choose different combinations of background color and foreground color
for a text in a website without executing. The same methodology can be applied for testing the website, with some suggestions
or inputs for choosing of the colors. If the color combinations are not appropriate, or they may affect the eye, then the system
rejects such color combinations. Because there is no automation testing technique for identification of color for web pages,
most of the cases the tester or developer may conflict with each other in selection of the colors.
