Web Content Accessibility Guidelines (WCAG) Audit

The Web Content Accessibility Guidelines (WCAG) Audit is a set of guidelines designed to ensure that websites and digital content are accessible to people with disabilities. The guidelines are organized into three levels of conformance: A, AA, and AAA. Each level includes specific criteria that must be met in order for the content to be considered accessible. The criteria are organized into four main categories: perceivable, operable, understandable, and robust. The criteria cover a wide range of topics, including text alternatives, keyboard accessibility, and the use of color and contrast. The WCAG Audit guidelines are an important tool for web developers and designers to ensure that their websites are accessible to everyone.

Testing the perceivability of a web page is an important step in ensuring that the page is accessible to all users. The first step in testing perceivability is to ensure that the page has sufficient contrast between text and background colors. Additionally, it is important to make sure that the page is readable without the need for a specific font size or color. Additionally, it is important to make sure that all images and videos have alternative text descriptions and captions. Finally, it is important to make sure that all content is organized in a logical and accessible way, and that all interactive elements are clearly labeled and easy to use.
