What is the Trusted Tester Process?

• A. A repeatable, accurate, scalable method for evaluating web content for conformance with the Revised Section 508 Standards.
• B. A one-time manual review.
• C. A process for testing only desktop apps.
• D. A marketing framework.

Answer: (A)

The Trusted Tester Process is a structured, repeatable approach for evaluating web content to determine conformance with the Revised Section 508 Standards. It provides a consistent methodology that can be applied across many pages and products, combining automated checks with targeted manual testing to uncover accessibility barriers that automation alone might miss. It emphasizes accuracy and scalability, with defined test steps, criteria, and documentation so results can be reproduced and audited. It applies to web content and electronic information, including websites and web applications, not just desktop programs. It is not a one-time manual review, and it isn’t a marketing framework.
