Accessibility testing
Websites and Web Applications
Our accessibility evaluation methodology is used to evaluate how well your website conforms to Web Content Accessibility Guidelines (WCAG) 2.1, an international set of standards from the Web Accessibility Initiative (WAI) of the World Wide Web Consortium (W3C). We use a combination of methods to evaluate accessibility.
- Automated Accessibility Evaluation
- Manual Accessibility Evaluation
- Assistive Technology Accessibility Evaluation
- Keyboard and Focus Testing
These are just a few examples of the tests we conduct to ensure the web content is accessible.
Our final report to you will detail if there are barriers, who is impacted, what technical requirement is not met, a priority for the barrier.
Mobile Testing
Our accessibility evaluation methodology is used to evaluate how well your mobile app conforms to Web Content Accessibility Guidelines (WCAG) 2.0, an international set of standards from the Web Accessibility Initiative (WAI) of the World Wide Web Consortium (W3C). We use a combination of methods to evaluate accessibility.
Manual Accessibility Evaluation
In manual evaluation, we will use iOS mobile accessibility tools to confirm issues and assess accessibility content for meaning and usability.
- VoiceOver
- Zoom
- Invert Colors
- Grayscale
For example, only a human evaluator can determine if the alternative text for an image is a meaningful equivalent of that image. Because visually impaired screen reader users typically use gestures rather than a touch navigation, this method also provides insights into gesture accessibility for people who use other emulators, such as users with impaired motor abilities.
Our final report to you will detail if there are barriers, who is impacted, what technical requirement is not met, a priority for the barrier and lastly how to fix it so that you can have an understanding of how hard or easy it would be to fix it.
Document Accessibility Testing and Remediation
To comply with Section 508 or the Americans with Disabilities Act your documents must also be accessible. Documents are tested for accessibility using various testing tools, some built into the application platform and others are the use of various screen readers. Most of our clients want us to also remediate the documents. Document types that we remediate are:
- Word
- Power Point
If you have documents that you need to be made accessible, please contact us.
