Jeanne: I saw in Tuesday's agenda that you wanted to talk about task evaluation.
Lauriat: This came up as part of
the conversation. Cyborg requested that we spend a session
talking through how we do task evaluation
... and I thought it was a good idea to talk about it in
depth
... in particular, it's in the context of moving from
WCAG-level conformance to task-based assessment
... instead of page by page, it's task by task
... we said previously how non-interference works with this.
and something we talked about previously...let me link to the
conformance draft and specifically the non-interference
part
<Lauriat> Conformance draft: https://docs.google.com/document/d/1wTJme7ZhhtzyWBxI8oMXzl7i4QHW7aDHRYTKXKELPcY/edit#heading=h.hgpudncy21e
Lauriat: I'm thinking we could
have two different kinds of guidance; one that is
non-interference and covers anything in the environment the
user goes through
... even if the user isn't interacting with things, it can
still interfere with the user's task
... audio controls, pause stop hide, etc.
... and other guidelines are primarily about what the user is
directly reading or interacting with to complete the task
... one of the things we should probably talk through, is that
a good idea. would it add more complexity and confusion on how
to judge whether you're conforming
Charles: I wonder if there's
both.
... if points are limited or capped somehow for meeting all of
the test that support a method and you get the appropriate
points towards conformance
... but you can't get the maximum amount of points if there's
interference
Jeanne: Currently, you can't get
WCAG conformance even if you met all the SCs, if you don't have
one of the 4 interference SCs
... people mentioned at TPAC, if you failed non-interference,
you can't get bronze
Lauriat: Since we're going by lowest score, you might be able to get points for other things, but it wouldn't be at a bronze level because of that
Charles: The points are still additive even though that task was blocked. So your cumulative score could pass the bronze threshold, but contradicts Jeanne's suggestion
<Cyborg> sorry just joined. if there are links, can someone please re-share?
Jeanne: That's why there's only 4 of these. We would have to say there's a special category that even if you're accruing points you need to meet the non-interference guidelines
<KimD> https://docs.google.com/document/d/1zDV9uZEryZc2OeM88QLOYu9KCsqaUxspeBqc-foq648/edit#
Lauriat: What does it look like
in terms of how you determine conformance if it's task based
instead of page based.
... instead of listing URLs..it would be, list all the
use-cases for your website
<Cyborg> is this about methods or about creating task-based guidelines?
<Cyborg> but do we already have task-based guidelines? are those new guidelines we need, that are more journey based? for example, would we want product owners to be creating processes to gather feedback about where the barriers lie in task completion?
<Cyborg> how granular do they get in where the specific barrier is?
<Cyborg> not need to get
<Cyborg> so that's tricky for improvement then?
<Lauriat> Related to the topic of flows: https://www.w3.org/TR/WCAG21/#cc3 Essentially, I think we want to modernize WCAG's "Complete processes" part of conformance.
<Charles> task based assessment is hopefully a viable framework for human evaluation. then the evaluation would be scored.
<Lauriat> Noting so we don't lose it: we should look into adding guidance about providing help (documentation, contact, something) for users.
<Lauriat> trackbot, end meeting
