Hi1 Jo.

Blind persons (like me) will not be able to test all visual success criterias. At least this is true without reading the html and css code, wich is of course normally too time consuming and often not even possible.

Contrast is more or less possible. wave.webaim.org<http://wave.webaim.org>; performs contrast checking. These tests are perhaps not 100 prs accurate, but quite good. Graphics with text can't be tested using Wave.

Hi List and especially screen reader users. I am currently undertaking an online course to assist in developing my knowledge in WCAG 2.0 and would like to know how other screen reader users test for conformance with regards to visual features such as contrast, flashes in relation to seizures, visual presentation etc.
Any advice and resources are greatly appreciated.
I use Window Eyes 8.4 but happy to work with other SRs if better suited to testing for compliance.
Thanks,
Jo
