Test without screen readers and you will know if things are coded so they are supposed to work.
I recommend using WAT, Object Inspector, and Ferret.
Firebug is great also.


Use a standards based test process which addresses all the relevant accessibility requirements and test for all relevant disabilities, e.g. blind, low-vision, deaf, hard-of-hearing, motor disabilities, speech disabilities, cognitive.




If they don't, you have a better idea where the problem is.
Just as a browser incompatibility can cause you to write code, then workaround code, andthen some more workaround code, you could do that for AT products and version--but who wants to do that? Why should you do that?
