Valter, I think Sophie and I were talking about two different things. Sophie was talking about confirming that Orca worked as a screenreader in LibreOffice builds. I was talking about the use of a11y tools (often Orca) as tool for performing repeated automated testing of nearly any software package. I am not an expert in this area, but you can find more information at sites like this: https://live.gnome.org/Orca/RegressionTesting http://www.slideshare.net/mariobehling/ray-wang-gnome-accessibility-and-automation-testing cjl -- Unsubscribe instructions: E-mail to l10n+h...@global.libreoffice.org Problems? http://www.libreoffice.org/get-help/mailing-lists/how-to-unsubscribe/ Posting guidelines + more: http://wiki.documentfoundation.org/Netiquette List archive: http://listarchives.libreoffice.org/global/l10n/ All messages sent to this list will be publicly archived and cannot be deleted
