Hi All,

Hope this mail finds you healthy and in well being.

I was getting confused as I was overthinking on a question. Some of my
colleagues are performing accessibility testing just by using Wave tool and
at maximum they are using keyboard only navigation. All of them are well
sighted individuals.

The remote infra makes it impossible for a screen reader to function and so
I have to convince them about the importance of screen reader testing. I
was thinking of a WCAG 2.x SC with AA level which cannot be determined by
the Wave and also difficult to make up with keyboard only testing.

Please share your thoughts over the same.
