Re: WCAG 2.0 effects on EARL

Hi Carlos, Johannes,

But this is where I think "evidence" (or a different name) may be needed again. In order to check success criterion 1.1.1, we conduct a couple of tests (either positive or negative ones). To record "SC 1.1.1 PASS" (or FAIL), we may want to reference the relevant tests that were carried out. Right?

Regards,
  Shadi
