  1. Just received my certification as a "Trusted Tester" from the US Department of Homeland Security.

    I've been certifiable for a while, but now it's official...

  2. Another thing I see far too often in #accessibility testing is the inappropriate use of screen readers (NVDA Speech Viewer) without actually experiencing the speech output as a real user would. This is another thing that just seems fundamentally wrong, as how are you doing valid testing without that experience? #TrustedTester #DHS #Section508

  3. Look, everyone... The trouble with #accessibility testing tools like #ANDI is that a person can end up performing accessibility testing without experiencing content as an actual #disabled user. It insulates them from using keyboard-only navigation, screen readers, screen magnification, etc. This just seems fundamentally wrong to me. #TrustedTester #DHS #Section508

  4. I am working through the #Section508 #DHS #TrustedTester course. Does anyone know if there's a nonvisual way of testing color contrast? #accessibility
