Re: Screenuser needed for remote testing

Hi Bob,

I guess this point is moot.

For the user test results to be of any use the testers should try to
represent the majority of use cases for a particular user group (screen
reader users, screen mag, or switch access). In truth,  you just won't
cover very much ground at all with such a small number of testers, so it
may be best to try to produce useful results by constraining the
platforms/UAs used in the test rather than trying to thinly cover too
many bases.

Most people are using Windows anyway, very few use the Mac OS and even
less the Linux OSs.

Cheers

Josh
