Before the Ceiling Closes
On 2026-10-30 this training passed 7 of 7 live-site checks and played to the end on 8 of 8 screen shapes with no layout blockers. 17 of its 20 steps can be finished with the keyboard alone; steps where you find every one in the scene, press a marked point still need a mouse, finger or pen.
1. The live site
Opened at its public address in Chrome and in WebKit (the engine inside Safari) set up as an iPhone. The last check compares the bytes the internet serves with the file that was tested, so this page describes exactly what you get.
| Result | Check |
|---|---|
| pass | answers 200 over https 200 |
| pass | the engine BOOTS: running, not merely served |
| pass | no page errors |
| pass | the deck is real 2 scenes, 20 steps, 49 clips |
| pass | loads nothing from another host |
| pass | the edge serves the bytes that were tested 17064966 bytes |
| pass | iPhone (WebKit, iOS Safari UA, 390x844): boots and the deck is real 2 scenes, 20 steps |

2. Phones, tablets and a laptop
The whole training was played start to finish at each screen shape, answering every step the way a trainee does, and the layout was measured before every screen: a control that cannot be reached or is covered, a page that scrolls sideways, a card too small to read. Those are blockers. Warnings are smaller things, like a target under 40 px.
| Screen | Result | Layout blockers | Warnings | Screens measured |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| iPhone SE, upright (375 x 548) | played to the end | 0 | 212 | 47 |
| iPhone 13/14/15, upright (390 x 664) | played to the end | 0 | 220 | 47 |
| Android phone, upright (360 x 680) | played to the end | 0 | 223 | 47 |
| iPhone held sideways (844 x 340) | played to the end | 0 | 177 | 47 |
| Small phone held sideways (667 x 320) | played to the end | 0 | 175 | 47 |
| iPad, upright (820 x 1106) | played to the end | 0 | 416 | 47 |
| iPad, sideways (1180 x 746) | played to the end | 0 | 365 | 47 |
| Laptop (1366 x 768) | played to the end | 0 | 362 | 47 |
3. Accessibility
Keyboard only. The training was played with no mouse: Tab, Space, Enter and the arrow keys. 17 of 20 steps were finished that way. Steps where you find every one in the scene, press a marked point could not be finished without a pointer, so a mouse was used for those steps only, to reach the rest of the training.
Focus. 42 Tab stops were visited. Every one showed a visible focus indicator. 1 Tab stops land on controls you cannot see (the author's hidden tools drawer). After 81 of 213 key presses the focus went back to the top of the page.
Narration. 18 of 18 spoken lines were on screen as text while they played.
Zoom and reflow. 320 CSS px (SC 1.4.10): no sideways scrolling, main button on screen; 200% zoom (SC 1.4.4): no sideways scrolling, main button on screen. With the WCAG text-spacing override, no text was clipped.
Automated rules (axe-core 4.10.3, WCAG 2.x A and AA), run on the first card, on the first step of every kind and on the finish screen. Rules that failed at least once:
- No rule failed.
The full conformance report for the player is the accessibility conformance report (VPAT).
4. What this training says about itself
Pictures. Two generated 360 images: an active fit-out floor and a training shop.
Told to the trainee: “This floor is a generated 360 image. It is somewhere to stand, not evidence about anybody's work”
Declared limits
- The floor picture does not quite close: one vertical seam sits behind the opening view, declared in the narration, and nothing to find is near it.
- Nobody in either picture is judged. Some questions, such as whether the lift's brakes are set, cannot be answered from a picture, and the training says so.
- There is no scale in a generated room, so distances such as cylinder to flame cannot be measured from it.
- NFPA 51B is not quoted because it was not read; the OSHA fire-watch paragraph quoted sets no number of minutes.
- It does not say whether the bench shows soldering or brazing, and leaves who owns each ceiling system to each project's contract.
5. What was not tested
- Real handsets. The screen shapes are Chrome set to each size, with a phone's touch and toolbar behaviour simulated. The iPhone check runs WebKit on Windows, not an iPhone.
- A screen reader (NVDA, JAWS, VoiceOver) played through the whole training by a person.
- Firefox, and Safari on a Mac.
- A slow or dropped network while the training plays.
- A VR headset. This page covers the browser player only.
- Whether the teaching is right for your site. That is a subject-matter review, not a test.
