Hello team,

As we know both in JAWS and NVDA we can bring the speech history to
read the renders of screen reader and this is very helpful for
non-native users of such applications.
While discussing in my workplace, we came up with a thought and want
experts opinion whether this is something already practiced or if not
is it useful or please highlight if there are gaps.

Using the logs of screen reader speech history, we are trying to come
up with automated scripts to test repetitive templates/ components in
our application. Intention is that it will bring down mannual efforts
and also testers who are not so efficient will get help.

We would like to start with one screen reader at a time.
Looking for any support or guidance.

Regards,
Megha
