Questions
- Does passing this mean my site is WCAG compliant?
- No, and we will not imply otherwise. Automated testing covers a minority of WCAG success criteria. Most require human judgement, such as whether alt text is meaningful or whether a flow can be completed by keyboard alone. A clean automated result and an inaccessible website are entirely compatible.
- A client has asked for an accessibility statement. Is this enough?
- No. A statement should describe what you have tested, how, what you know is not yet conformant and what you are doing about it. An automated scan is one input. Publishing a statement claiming conformance on the strength of one would be a claim you cannot support.
- What should I fix first?
- Colour contrast, missing alt text and unlabelled form fields, in that order. They are the most commonly flagged, the cheapest to fix, and between them they remove a real share of the mechanical barriers before anybody spends money on a manual audit.
