Accessibility Testing

The purpose of our Accessibility Testing is to identify and correct problems that may prevent people with disabilities from using your product or service.

Accessibility Testing is a type of software testing performed to ensure that a product or service is accessible to all people, regardless of their abilities or possible disabilities.

Some Accessibility issues may include:

  • Lack of support for assistive technologies that help people with disabilities use the software.
  • Content not accessible to the visually impaired, such as very small text or images that do not have an image description, without alternative text (ALT).
  • An unintuitive user interface can be difficult for anyone to use, especially people with disabilities.
  • Content is not accessible to the hearing impaired, such as videos without subtitles or audio without description.
  • Content is not accessible to people with cognitive disabilities, such as content that is overly complex or confusing.
  • Content is not accessible to people with mobility disabilities, such as content that is difficult to use with a keyboard or mouse.

Accessibility Testing is an important part of developing accessible products and services. By conducting extensive testing, companies can ensure that their products and services are accessible to everyone.

The World Health Organization (WHO) estimates that there are more than one billion people with disabilities worldwide. This represents approximately 15% of the world’s population.

Accessibility Tests can be performed manually or automated.

Characteristics of Accessibility Tests

There are a number of standards and guidelines that can be used to guide Accessibility Testing. These standards include:

WCAG 2.1

The Web Content Accessibility Guidelines (WCAG) are a set of international standards for web accessibility.

Section 508

The Rehabilitation Act of 1973, Section 508, is a United States federal law that requires federal government products and services to be accessible to people with disabilities.

ISO 30071-1

The International Standard ISO 30071-1 provides guidance on how to assess the accessibility of products and services.

Accessibility Testing is an essential practice for any company that wants to create products and services that are accessible to all people.
