  2. Advanced WCAG Interpretation for QA Testers 3 Desktop Accessibility Testing

Why This Course Is Different

Unlike generic accessibility training, this programme:

  1. Is built specifically for QA testers
  2. Focuses on real testing decisions, not theory
  3. Separates baseline capability from expert-level auditing
  4. Reflects how accessibility issues actually appear in QA cycles
  5. Is designed by practitioners with real-world delivery experience

The training is self-paced and broken into short, focused lessons that can be revisited whenever you like.

You will learn how to...

  • Understand why accessibility belongs in QA, what "advanced" really means, and how your role fits into wider delivery teams.
  • Move beyond rules and checklists. Learn how t o interpret WCAG, apply it consistently, and avoid false positives and false negatives.
  • Build a solid foundation in desktop accessibility testing- including structure, keyboard navigation, focus, errors, and consistency.
  • Demystify screen readers. Learn when to use them, what to listen for, and how to report issues effectively, without becoming an AT expert.
