RE: Pilot test - need volunteers

Hi All,

I’m happy to donate some time.  I have been lurking on the weekly calls, but some stuff it hard to follow because I haven’t been on all the calls :-D

Thank you,
 Joe

Hi, Terrill and Sina,

Hi All,

Sorry I've been missing in action - a little over my head with commitments at the UW. Are you wanting to keep testing within this group for now, or are you open to recruiting volunteers from the outside?

We thought we'd start with asking within the CG, but if there are others who want to volunteer for this, that would be great! The CG is also open for anyone to join:

Another question. Are expected results already defined? If so, what is the process in case we may have comments on what the expected results should be?

Sorry for the double-email, but is there an issue where the tests are laid out? Sorry if I’m missing something.

Just wanted to look at the things ahead of time.

The tests are still under development. This project board<https://github.com/w3c/aria-at/projects/1> shows which are in progress. Each card (that isn't in the backlog) links to the corresponding issue, to track progress for that test plan. The issue has a link to the test itself. You can leave comments about the test and expected results in the issue.

The test *runner* that will be used for the pilot test is also under development<https://github.com/w3c/aria-at/wiki/Test-Authorship-and-Test-Runner-Development-Plan#work-stream-21-build-production-system>. The runner that is currently available at https://w3c.github.io/aria-at/ is a prototype, but we'll be using the new runner for the pilot test. For now, you can try out the prototype test runner.

I am willing to cover @jscholes time spent testing with FF/NVDA, and I may be able to test with  Chrome/Jaws, but it would be good to see what this entails, task-wise.

Great, thank you! Don't hesitate to ask questions. :-)

cheers
