Add to the QA process to make sure that components are correctly categorized into Play Area and Control Area.
On second thought, I don't really think this is necessary. This is mostly a design process change but won't have any impact on alt input behavior. QA tests alt input very well and we can avoid extra QA cost by not changing this.
Agreed, as the only way to tell if it is implemented correctly is to use a screen reader, and that's not required for Alternative Input testing.
It is up to the designers and devs to ensure the Play Area / Control Area decisions get made.
I created a sample Alternative Input Design document in the PhET Accessibility template folder. Sample place as other design doc templates.
During design meeting today we decided that the process for adding alt input to a sim will be to categorize components into play area and control area.
Lets update the documentation to reflect this.
