Question
For a total newbie how do you get set up to test my website with a screen reader?
Answer
A simple way to begin screen reader testing is using the free options available within your native operating system – for example, Mac offers VoiceOver and Windows NVDA. Each screen reader mentioned has readily available documentation and tutorials you can follow to get started.
Once you choose a technology, it is best to get comfortable with the basic commands, such as navigating through content using the Tab key. As your expertise grows, you can explore advanced shortcuts and functionality available.
