Dear members,
I have some specific queries on web accessibility testing in windows
10 desktop and touch devices
I kindly request for your inputs on those:

1. How far the common screen readers like Jaws and NvDA support for
windows 10 web applications and web sites?

1.1: Which is the recommended browser/screen reader combination for
accessibility testing in windows 10?

2: Generally, do we perform web accessibility testing in windows 10
touch devices like tabs and phones?
If yes, which screen reader /browser combination would be better to test with?

2.2: Specifically, could anyone share if their experience if they have
tested with the following device in windows 10?
Lenovo Helix: Detachable Hybrid Tablet (Sim Card supported

Thanks for your inputs,

Thanks and Regards,

Dear members,
I have some specific queries on web accessibility testing in windows
10 desktop and touch devices
I kindly request for your inputs on those:

1. How far the common screen readers like Jaws and NvDA support for
windows 10 web applications and web sites?
As for as my concern, I couldn't found much difference with the jaws
and n v d a with web applications/websites on the windows 10.


1.1: Which is the recommended browser/screen reader combination for
accessibility testing in windows 10?
I suggest to go with n v d a/fire fox.
Suggesting because, with the jaws and other browsers, some times, you
may get false results.
The jaws may guess things some times.


2: Generally, do we perform web accessibility testing in windows 10
touch devices like tabs and phones?
If yes, which screen reader /browser combination would be better to test with?
Again, I suggest to go with the firefox and the nv d a.
the narrator has still some drawbacks

this is just my experience.
Other experts may suggest there thoughts.

any considerable differences from Windows 8.1. I am talking about normal
keyboard testing not with gesture.

Hi Everyone,

I'm a graduate student at Arizona State University. For my graduate
project, I'm studying the impacts of accessibility on users with and
without accessibility requirements. I've created a little website with
some basic forms of web content and a survey to assess the impact of the
content's accessibility (or inaccessibility). Could you all help me out by
participating in my survey?

Here's the link:

Thanks,
