We discussed that a few weeks ago. We changed the priority of the assertion, and the system did what it was designed to do. No testing needed to be repeated 20:10:23 Matt_King: We still have six issues on "action menu button", all from Apple 20:10:40 Matt_King: We're left with two plans (the two "radio" plans) in "Draft review: 20:10:45 s/:/"/ 20:10:53 Matt_King: After that will be the "media seek slider" 20:11:21 Matt_King: We're chipping away at things thanks to everybody's hard work! 20:12:23 present+ 20:12:41 topic: Disclosure nav menu testing 20:13:05 github: https://github.com/w3c/aria-at/issues/1195 20:13:46 Matt_King: I have version 18.3 and 15.3.1. I only ran test 9 (but test 9 and 11 were very similar) 20:14:07 Matt_King: I think Joe_Humbert verified that he had the latest versions 20:14:15 i do 20:14:19 mmoss: I was also on OS 15.3 and Safari 18.3 20:14:27 this in another meeting 20:14:30 mmoss: And I reset all my settings 20:14:40 still in* 20:15:43 Matt_King: So IsaDC, myself, and Joe_Humbert all definitely have the same versions and are all getting the same results 20:15:54 Matt_King: I hate to just erase mmoss's experience, though! 20:16:09 mmoss: I have no objection to that though, in the interest of consistency 20:16:42 mmoss: I would feel weird about updating my results to match, though 20:16:46 Matt_King: Me, too 20:16:57 Matt_King: I'm wondering what could create a difference like this... 20:17:35 mmoss: There are three conflicts. The last test--test 14--is a different class of conflict. The first two seem specific to the tab key--it's just not doing what it's supposed to do 20:17:57 Matt_King: I'm wondering, if we were to compare our keyboard settings... 20:22:19 Matt_King: the accessibility setting for "full keyboard access"... 20:22:24 mmoss: I have that turned off 20:22:59 Matt_King: I have that off. It's even dimmed--I can't turn it on, though I don't know why 20:23:01 turned off for me 20:23:07 IsaDC: Me, too 20:23:39 mmoss: You can't turn it on while VoiceOver is running. That's why it's dimmed for you, Matt_King 20:24:42 Matt_King: My "keyboard navigation" switch is on 20:24:46 mmoss: So is mine 20:25:15 Matt_King: I think that one is supposed to get automatically turned on when you turn on VoiceOver, normally, unless you turn it off... 20:25:29 Matt_King: Is there a setting related to "tab" in Safari? 20:25:37 yes 20:25:39 mfairchild: I think it still has that 20:25:47 i just checked 20:26:46 mfairchild: It's under "advanced" in the accessibility section. It's called "press tab to highlight each item on the page" 20:26:51 mmoss: I do not have that turned on 20:26:57 present+ dean 20:27:11 i have that turned on 20:27:14 dean: You have to have that on, and it's off by default 20:27:41 mmoss: I'm going to toggle it "on" and run through the test real quick 20:28:11 Matt_King: Yeah, maybe that's the problem here. That can be our action plan 20:29:48 mmoss: I will finish running through the conflicts that I have, but at a glance, the first test case that I ran gave me what I was hoping to see--that is, consistent results with everyone else 20:29:52 IsaDC: All right! 20:29:55 Matt_King: Great! 20:30:06 Topic: Radio group testing 20:30:20 Matt_King: It's very odd that several of the plans had 8 out of 15 tests done 20:30:34 Matt_King: Is that because it's how many of the tests didn't change when we updated to the new version of the plan? 20:30:49 Matt_King: Or is it maybe because the bot didn't produce results for those tests? 20:31:10 IsaDC: If I remember correctly, the tests were for JAWS, and they matched with a very old test run that we did. 20:31:24 IsaDC: I don't know where those results are coming from because I didn't have any JAWS tests done, yet 20:31:39 Matt_King: So those must be from the prior runs of the plan 20:32:06 IsaDC: For "radio group with tab index", the NVDA Bot didn't run all the tests. I ran it again, but I haven't yet checked if it finished or not 20:32:42 Matt_King: The "active descendant" one, it looks like the NVDA Bot did everything--AT responses for 15 out of 15 20:33:03 Matt_King: Then there's a bot run that says "responses for zero of 15 tests recorded." It looks like it's just not running 20:33:17 Matt_King: Oh, it says "15 tests cancelled" 20:33:36 Matt_King: Did a human definitely do that? Did you maybe cancel it by accident, IsaDC? Or is there a bug? 20:33:51 IsaDC: I didn't press the button in the "manage bot run" dialog 20:34:22 howard-e: Just confirming, after looking at the log for that run, there is a bug with the automation 20:34:53 howard-e: I think it might be related to some work that's being done to improve the automation stability 20:34:56 Matt_King: Ironic! 20:35:15 howard-e: I think the best thing is to wait until Bocoup can verify that the way is clear 20:35:31 Matt_King: Okay. When the coast is clear, could you let IsaDC, James, and me know? 20:35:33 howard-e: Will do 20:35:54 Matt_King: Okay. In the mean time, we still have the other runs that people can work on 20:36:19 Matt_King: So, "active descendant". IsaDC and Hadi are assigned to JAWS for the first one 20:36:33 IsaDC: Hadi isn't here today, but I will send him an e-mail 20:36:40 IsaDC: I will have my testing done by the end of tomorrow 20:36:43 Matt_King: Awesome 20:37:04 Matt_King: For "active descendant" with VoiceOver, it's Joe_Humbert and IsaDC that are currently assigned 20:37:29 Matt_King: We only have Hadi assigned on the "roving tab index" test plan for JAWS 20:37:45 Matt_King: Are IsaDC and Hadi the only JAWS users we have available? 20:38:10 mmoss: I have access to JAWS, but I don't have version 2025, yet (we're still working with IT to get the license for that) 20:38:38 IsaDC: I'm going to run one, so I may as well run the other one 20:39:05 Matt_King: So, what was true for the NVDA bot is also true for the VoiceOver bot? 20:39:36 Joe_Humbert: Were some of these updated recently? 20:39:50 Matt_King: yes. The "radio" test plans are fully up-to-date 20:39:57 Matt_King: That's why 7 of your 15 tests are not done 20:40:28 Matt_King: For the 8 tests that say they are done, we should have you take a look and confirm 20:40:39 Joe_Humbert: Sure, I can do that 20:41:00 Matt_King: Oh, mmoss is also assigned on this one. That means we have three people assigned 20:41:07 mmoss: I'm also assigned for NVDA 20:41:24 Matt_King: So, mmoss, you're completing the "disclosure" one 20:41:37 Matt_King: I wonder if we should wait to have any bot updates before you continue your work 20:41:54 Matt_King: Unlike Joe_Humbert, you didn't previously run this one, so you don't have any prior results 20:42:27 Matt_King: What's the ETA for a fix to the bots, here? 20:42:32 jugglinmike: I think by the end of the day 20:42:56 IsaDC: I will send mmoss an e-mail once I have bot results for him 20:43:08 Matt_King: The only person who is sitting out in the cold right now is dean 20:43:26 Matt_King: We'll have a whole new test plan next week, so maybe we'll hold you in reserve for now 20:43:43 dean: I'll be attending a conference, but I should have some time 20:44:06 dean: I can take the bot results and copy them out and paste them in. It's just that I have a real hard time typing things while I'm listening to them 20:44:50 Joe_Humbert: I can help you install the recorder 20:45:01 dean: Thanks! Let's do that 20:45:09 Matt_King: Thank you, Joe_Humbert! 20:45:46 Matt_King: Okay, we have a plan for "radio group active descendant." 20:45:58 Matt_King: mmoss is taking care of disclosure navigation 20:46:12 Matt_King: When we get a bot fix in place, IsaDC will e-mail mmoss 20:46:36 Joe_Humbert: I noticed there is only one person testing JAWS for "roving tab index". Are we just pushing that out for next week? 20:46:48 Matt_King: We would love to do that now if someone is available 20:47:05 Joe_Humbert: I don't have JAWS 2025, but could I do it using JAWS forty-minute mode? 20:47:09 Matt_King: Sure 20:47:21 Matt_King: Let's see how IsaDC's schedule is 20:47:45 Joe_Humbert: I may not be able to attend next meeting next Wednesday--I have a lot of meetings on Wednesdays. Thursday meetings are better for me 20:50:08 Topic: automating JAWS 20:50:58 jugglinmike: If JAWS ever implements AT Driver, it would be nice if they allowed automation without a license 20:51:33 jugglinmike: That would make our work a lot easier, and the same goes for many developers who might automate JAWS to test their own applications 20:52:02 Matt_King: I don't know if they'd be open to that, but it's a good call out. We should be thinking about how to manage secrets like JAWS licenses 20:56:26 Zakim, end the meeting 20:56:26 As of this point the attendees have been ChrisCuellar, jugglinmike1, james, howard-e, IsaDC, mmoss, mfairchild, Matt_King, Joe_Humbert, dean 20:56:28 RRSAgent, please draft minutes 20:56:29 I have made the request to generate https://www.w3.org/2025/02/20-aria-at-minutes.html Zakim 20:56:36 I am happy to have been of service, jugglinmike; please remember to excuse RRSAgent.
