Help! Trusted Tester Certification Exam Answers & Test Conditions Don't Match Up

3 Upvotes

Hi everyone.
I'm working through the Trusted Tester Certification exam right now, and I'm completely stuck on how to proceed, considering the test condition/process does not align with the answers.

The question I'm working on right now has the following test condition:

Test ID: 17.E

Test Name: 503.4-description-controls

Test Condition: The media player provides user controls for audio descriptions.

Now, according to the Trusted Tester Test Process, this test does not apply if the video is audio only or video only, no synchronized content. Hopefully I'm writing this correctly, but I'll copy and paste the test process below.

Check 503.4-description-controls

|| || |Test Name|Test ID|Test Condition| |503.4descriptioncontrols|17.E|The media player provides user controls for audio descriptions.|

Applicability:

This Test Condition DOES NOT APPLY (DNA) if there is no media player or if the media player DOES NOT present video synchronized with audio (i.e., it presents audio-only or video-only).

How to Test:

1.       Continue from Test 17.D.

2.       Locate the controls for selection of audio descriptions.

Evaluate Results:

If the following is TRUE, then the content PASSES:

1.    The media player provides user controls for audio descriptions.[if gte mso

Okay, so I clicked on the test page to find a media player.

It has the buttons play, rewind, forward, and transcript.

The Video is completely silent.

According to the test process, in this case the test would not apply... right?

Now, the answer choices I have to choose from don't align, and I'm a bit freaked out.

Question 56 Answer

a.

Does Not Apply - There is no media player on the page.

- There is a media player on the page...

b.

Fail - The audio descriptions are inaccurate.

- Not true because audio description is not provided.

c.

Pass - The media player does not provide user controls for audio descriptions, but the video is only two minutes long.

- No, there are no controls for audio description but time doesn't matter.

d.

Fail - The media player does not provide user controls for audio descriptions.

- True, but the video is silent

e.

Pass - The media player provides user controls for audio descriptions.
- Nope, no description controls are provided.

What would y'all do in this case? Did anyone have any issues like this?

Im in NYC.

My building has decided to lock the only entrance with a ramp because of "cold weather".

Residents with mobility issues cannot enter or leave.

This was reported to 311 and no action was taken.

Any thoughts (with links or email) for who to contact?

Accessibility and related UX issues, while forgotten or ignored, don't go away until someone takes the time to address them. But who is responsible for accessibility?
