While testing with NVDA and Fangs (a Firefox extension that writes a text simulation of a default JAWS output) is very handy, keep in mind that your experience will be completely different from that of a real user of assistive technology. I encourage you to involve real people with disabilities in your testing as much as possible. Shawn Henry wrote a book exactly about that: http://uiaccess.com/accessucd/
