I went to a session at CSUN this year, about this very topic. Don't remember who gave it, (getting old I guess,) and as I recall they of course recommended testing as many combinations as you could, which is good advice. As I recall, they said if you could only test one combo your best bet was NVDA/Firefox. I would add if you can add a second, it should probably be IE/JAWS.

You can go too far down this rabbit hole, or simplify it too much, from my experience.

Hi,



Good Day.



Looking for a very simple confirmation on testing a web page or web application. Would just like to know if there is any basic standard rule to test using different screen readers ( JAWS, NVDA, VOICE OVER) or it depends up on the user comfort.



And if any particular procedure to be followed can anyone please help me understand the same.







Thanks & Regards,

Surbhi Mudgal.
