Re: Measurability in Silver

Charles asks:

"*Can a qualitative result be accepted as a measurable and non-binary
“pass”?*"

My first-pass gut reaction is no.

Qualitative user-experience data is extremely useful in the design phase,
but "conformance" reporting needs to be testable and *repeatable*, a feat
that is next to impossible when it relies on specific individuals.

I am reminded of the opening remarks from one of our colleagues and a
member of the BBC's Accessibility Office, Jamie Knight (aka Jamie and
Lion). Jamie starts his presentations with the (paraphrased) caveat, "At
the end of this presentation, you will have a deeper understanding of the
user-experience of but ONE PERSON WITH AUTISM".

Jamie recognizes that his experience may be unique or at a minimum
sufficiently different from others that using his personal experiences and
"needs" alone may not effectively guide us to a point where we can
unequivocally say "we must do *this* (whatever this may be) to ensure full
accessibility". In fact, as I sadly must explain to students in my regular
trainings, digital accessibility is not achievable at "100%"; that it is
instead a long-tail activity, where we close gaps and hope that the targets
we set increases the number of users we benefit.

I generally support the goal of including user-testing in the mix, and for
giving "credit" to sites/organisations/projects and apps that have included
testing with users with disabilities, but because those persons with
disabilities are unique human beings, and not a monolithic "reporting
block" of users, the value of their feedback, in a regulatory context, is,
I will assert, somewhat constrained and limited.

More to the point, if we had a "technical" failure of one of the current SC
(I believe Léonie mentioned parsing) I think it could be conceivable to
assemble a panel of "human testers" who could in fact assert that *for
them* the parsing failure isn't a usability failure. But that is the
feedback from that single group. I fear that it would be easy to 'stack the
deck' with liberally minded, super-experienced 'testers' who may not
actually reflect the reality of the average user - and more importantly, we
have no means or method of determining whether the user-panel was "stacked"
or truly representative of all users with a disability or multiple or
compound disabilities.

Add on the notion that a "solution" for some users may in fact be an added
burden for others, and I can quickly conclude that the nature of a human
testing panel will have a direct and material impact on the results. For
example, anecdotally we have suggestions that reduced contrast between
foreground and background colors will "calm" the 'dancing characters'
phenomenon for some users with dyslexia. Yet at the same time reducing the
contrast adds an additional burden to the low-vision user.

If my user-testing includes a dyslexic, but not a low-vision user who may
also be impacted by Deuteranomaly - aka one of the forms of color-blindness
- and that user with dyslexia reports "success", do we then reward the site
with a "Pass", even if the low-vision user remains negatively impacted?

***********************

Charles also brought forward an interesting use-case /  Hypothetical
scenario that is worth unpacking, as I for one disagree with some of the
assertions and conclusions:



*Element is a link. The information and indication of action is “this text
is a link”. It is blue text within a line of black text that is not a link.
It is not underlined. Links are stateful. There is only 1 of 5 states where
there is no second explicit visual means. In the default state, there is
color alone. In the focus, active, hover and visited states there are
additional visual affordances as well as the user agent providing a pointer
cursor where there is a pointing input device. There is even a selected
state, and a pseudo after element that includes content of an icon that
conveys the link is external.So, “same information is available through
text or character cues” is true in 4 states, but not true in 1. Does this
fail? *


While I agree with the comment that links are "stateful", I'll step back
and think about "state" not in the "code" sense, but rather in the user /
usability sense. Additionally, I'd like to also think about "impact".

In the same scenario, I could suggest that there are but *two* states:
inert or active; where inert is when the link is out of focus to both tab
order and reading order (for example, a link in the 5th paragraph while I
am reading the second paragraph would be inert - likewise a visited link in
the first paragraph would be inert when I am reading the second paragraph),
and/but if I am hovering/focusing/activating a link then all three of those
'actions' are but a subset of the larger concept of "active", as the user
is engaging with that link in some direct fashion.

In Charles' scenario, all three sub-sections of "Active" do have a visual
indication, which is good and useful when the link is in the active state,
but in the same scenario, one of the two potential inert states has a
visual indication (visited), but one does not (unvisited).

I will argue that in this case, the single unvisited, unindicated link has
an *impact far more significant* than the indicated visited link because of
the lack of discoverability. In other words, knowing a link is a link
*after* you've already visited it once is useful for quick visual recall,
but the lack of a discoverable link (due to the lack of a visual indicator)
has a more significant impact on the first-visit user: they can't find what
they don't know exists. I think that here, "Impact" is of a concern as
well, and measuring impact will be extremely difficult across all use-cases
and scenarios, especially given the variety of issues and disability types.


*So, “same information is available through text or character cues” is true
in 4 states, but not true in 1. Does this fail? Under WCAG 1.4.1, it does.
Under Silver, there may be other options. As a scale (as suggested at the
beginning), this could earn a 4 of 5. However, that then requires an
enumerated mark such as ‘3 or higher’ to qualify as passing.*

Based upon the above, I will again counter-argue there are but two states:
inert or active. And that for the inert, unvisited link, the impact of it
not being discoverable visually at "that state" is far more of an issue
than whether or not the "active" (in the sense of CSS "active" state be
conveyed with an underline [sic] or similar), is supported. Indeed, when
you layer the states (whether 2 or 5) *over a timeline*, I could also argue
that failing the first scenario (inert, unvisited) is *the most critical
time* to be conveying visually the presence of a link, and failing that
step in the timeline means that the user stands a large chance of never
getting to the other states. Thus failing "step 1" in that multiple
timeline scenario is far more critical than failing "steps 2 or 3" ("hover
and/or focus"). It's not as simple as 4 out of 5 states = 80% pass, *because
the one state where it fails is also the most crucial.*


*What if the test question was “do people understand from any visual cues
that this text is a link?” *


In your scenario, because it is presumed to be in the "first" (inert,
unvisited) state, presumably none of your test subjects could affirmatively
answer the question, because there is no visual indication. It once again
becomes a binary question: can you see it, yes or no? Additionally
(however), if your lab has 30 seats, and the first 30 test subjects
subsequently visits the linked page, will the test results from the second
group of 30 accurately convey test results? Their initial experience might
be of a link that is "inert, visited" (if the browser "memory" or cache
hasn't been cleared).


*Then that question was answered by test participants that included 60
people with a wide spectrum of visual abilities and color deficiencies. If
the result was 49 of 60 said “yes”, and 8 of 60 said “yes, if” or “yes,
when” and 3 said “no”, there is clearly a new grey area or middle ground
beyond simply scoring on a scale. The qualitative result is that it passed,
while the quantitative result is that it scored high enough to pass if the
enumerated mark or threshold was 51%.*

Yikes! A score of 51% means it fails nearly as many users as it doesn't,
which I find antithetical to our larger goal of chasing the long-tail. I
think the better question is, if 3 of 60 testers (5%) report a failure, do
we still "pass it"? Do we effectively say "sorry, your user-group is too
small to count, we're going to pass this anyway"? I'm personally struggling
with that idea...

********************
In the context of the larger discussion, I think "earning" additional
points for user-testing (perhaps to accelerate from Bronze to Silver) is a
useful thought exercise, but going way back to the beginning; for
conformance requirements we will still need a baseline that *IS* a binary
pass/fail (despite the inherent flaws there). I do not believe however that
"user-testing" should have the capacity to "override" the more binary (and
hopefully more machine-testable) requirements that are black and white
"questions".
