One of the things that I like about PAs 78 is that it gives
information about all disabilities - and explicitly says that user
testing is vital. I think that we're still quite a long way off being
able to use automated testing for things like ease of understanding of
language (which, for local Government sites is often very much
overlooked from what I have seen; though I guess in part that can
arise from the language they use on paper!)
