RE: Human input in the Auto-WCAG test-cases

Hi Frank,
The cantTell here isn't right I think. It needs an additional step in which the user is asked about the alt attribute. The test is still a work in progress though, so we'll get to that.

The step seems valid but it would need additional details, such as what exactly is asked from the user. We're still exploring how extactly to format this. Annika created a test which uses the following: 

https://www.w3.org/community/auto-wcag/wiki/SC3-1-1-text
> Present the page to the user.
> Question: Is L1 the primary language of this page?
>
> Note that language code L1 should be presented in human readable form, e.g. using the description from the language subtag registry.
> 
> Help text: "Primary language" means the language of the majority of the text on the page or the language of the interface (navigation menu etc.) of the page.

I quite like this format so I'd suggest using something like this. We'll probably need to improve the instructions about test creation to include information about how to prompt users.

Hi Wilco, Hi everyone,

in Step 2 of SC1-1-1-area in<https://www.w3.org/community/auto-wcag/wiki/SC1-1-1-area#Step_3> the Wiki you used the EARL-outcome "cantTell" with the message "Human input required ".
On the test design page<https://www.w3.org/community/auto-wcag/wiki/Introduction_to_auto-wcag_test_design#Complete_workflow_and_testing_logic> it is stated, that "The workflow contains automated and manual steps. Usually a combination of both.".

I included steps like "Present the image and the corresponding alt-text to the user" into my test-cases.

Could you please clarify, which methodology I should follow?

Thanks a lot and greetings from Wetter
Frank
