Nothing in this space is really mature yet, but there are some efforts to make it a reality. The ARIA-AT project[1], which aims to test assistive technology support for various WAI-ARIA and HTML constructs, is aiming to automate its testing across multiple screen readers [2]. NVDA, the free and open source screen reader mentioned in the article, also includes some integration-style tests[3].
