UNDERSTANDING THE
ACCESSIBILITY GUIDELINES
DEVELOPING TECHNICAL
SKILLS
CONDUCTING DETAILED
ACCESSIBILITY AUDITS
Firstly, the teams performing
dedicated accessibility audits must
understand the detailed accessibility
guidelines. It starts by familiarizing
the teams with the dedicated Web
Content Accessibility Guidelines
(WCAG) created by the World Wide
Web Consortium (W3C). These are
organized into key principles of
perceivable, operable,
understandable, and robust (POUR).
The accessibility audit services must
develop expert skills in managing the
accessibility tools, manual testing
techniques, and coding skills.
Leading automated testing tools like
Lighthouse, WAVE, and Axe help
identify common accessibility issues.
The hands-on experience with the
leading screen readers like JAWS
(Job Access with Speech) and NVDA
(Non-Visual Desktop Access) helps in
navigating the digital content.
When it comes to accessibility audits,
they must be complete and thorough
in terms of different aspects.
Businesses must focus on the proper
goals of audits, such as performing
automated testing, manual testing,
and user testing. The goal and
objectives of the accessibility testing
ensure that the teams have clear
conformance levels for identifying
the key areas of improvement.
