Well pointed out Mike, thanks. I’ve now added it to the list and also put down Thunder as well. Not sure why I didn’t have them originally…may be because I don’t really use them so much so they were off the radar.

Nice list. I do wonder why you didn’t include Fangs though. It’s a nice tool to quickly come to understand how a screen reader would present a web page.

Hi Priti, you are absolutely right and although I do say test with end users I probably should have flagged this up more obviously at the start of the post.

When I wrote this post I was really targeting it at the developer who is using ARIA who must always test even if they will be having it user tested by screen reader users after they have built the app.

It would be great to hear from anyone who has been involved in user testing either as a tester or a developer. I’m sure the findings would be using to everyone and not just those involved in the project being tested.

Lovely to catch up with you at CSUN by the way
