What We Do
Our organization upholds the W3C Web Content Accessibility Guidelines version 2 (WCAG 2.2) as a benchmark for compliance, given its endorsement by government authorities. To ensure adherence to this standard, we conduct rigorous testing, employing a comprehensive approach that covers all essential aspects.
By using our three-strand testing process, we ensure that websites are accessible to all individuals, regardless of their abilities. These efforts are critical in ensuring that websites are inclusive and meet the needs of every user.
How We Test
Our testing process is meticulously carried out in three parts, involving user testing, automated tools, and expert manual review.
User Testing
Our team of testers is composed of individuals with disabilities who have personally experienced the obstacles that inaccessible websites pose to their independence.
Automated Tools
We utilize advanced automated testing tools to identify accessibility issues and ensure comprehensive coverage of the WCAG guidelines.
Expert Manual Review
Our technical auditors, well-versed in the latest accessibility guidelines and best practices, provide expert manual review and analysis.
Where We Test
Testing is mainly conducted at our offices near Swansea. We are fully equipped with the latest technology and assistive devices to ensure comprehensive accessibility testing. We also offer hybrid working options to our employees.
