Greetings Group,
This question relates only to alt text. If you are testing a page on which you can only do AT testing using VoiceOver, can you fairly assume that the alt text for images on the page will be read by very similar by JAWS? Are there major differences in the way that JAWS and VO reads alt text?

Thanks!
