I don't know how basic you want to go (is the audience anyone who might want to help out or just testers?), but here's a list of terms in the order I encountered or thought of them:

* ICT
* Baseline, Baseline tests
* WCAG
* Test scenario
* ARIA
* aria-live politeness setting (explained in [TC05-001-fail](https://section508coordinators.github.io/BaselineTestPages/testcases/TC05-001-fail.html))
* ARIA live regions
* Any other ARIA definitions? This isn't the place for a tutorial on ARIA
* Changes in presented content: driven and automatic
* Change of state
* Programmatic, programmatically determined (when "behind the scenes" is insufficient, I find this harder to explain to average OPM employees than I thought it would be), programmatically set, programmatically associated... Examples of programmatic event notifications are given in [TC05-001-fail](https://section508coordinators.github.io/BaselineTestPages/testcases/TC05-001-fail.html)
* Accessible name and accesible description, accessible name and accessible description computation (links to various resources throughout the test cases)
* Text alternative
* Image ([TC06-001-fail](https://section508coordinators.github.io/BaselineTestPages/testcases/TC06-001-fail.html) and [TC06-002-pass](https://section508coordinators.github.io/BaselineTestPages/testcases/TC06-002-pass.html) have a list of examples)
* Meaningful image
* Decorative image
* Equivalent description
* Input element
