Helen Burge

Biography

I have a Business Information Technology degree from Bournemouth University and graduated in 2003.  After leaving university I worked in testing and part of all my roles involved accessibility testing due to my fascination at how unappreciated the need is to make websites and applications accessible.  I worked closely with developers to help learn the most effective way to find and report issues. From this, I built a unique test methodology to make sure accessibility bugs are not subjective but make sure any issues raised are reproducible with actionable items.  This approach has ensured the development team can resolve issues and understand the impact on the end users.
