WCAG 2 Accessibility Auditing, Accessibility Testing Services

• A low-cost opportunity to get your website checked by an expert, highlighting problems and strengths.
• Your website will be checked manually by a web accessibility expert against the WCAG 2.1 AA checkpoints.
• Specific practical suggestions will be provided to improve the accessibility of your site.
• You will receive an email outlining the issues found and a set of recommendations for improving the accessibility of your website.

The cost of a full audit can vary depending on the complexity and size of the website. For a standard website the cost is £600.

• The website is checked against all WCAG guidelines up to WCAG 2.2 AA, highlighting all accessibility issues found and providing solutions to those problems. I provide a detailed report that includes:
• An executive summary highlighting the issues that should be addressed first, i.e., those that present the biggest barriers to disabled people accessing the content and those that are the quickest/easiest to fix.
• Feedback on usability issues I come across while testing the website. I provide practical suggestions to improve usability as well as accessibility.
• A discussion of every WCAG 2.2 checkpoint that failed when manually tested against the guidelines. I discuss the issues, provide screenshots (or video if necessary), and code examples (if I think they will be useful), and I suggest solutions. I also give a rating relating to how serious the problem is.
• A summary table that includes every WCAG 2.2 AA checkpoint, marking whether it passed, failed, or was not applicable.
• Apart from the manual checks, I use a range of tools to test the website, including screen readers, a text-only browser, a color analyzer, and CSS and HTML validators. My disabled colleagues also use their own accessibility tools to access the website content, including a screen magnifier, color changer, and mobile accessibility tools.
• I check all dynamic page elements for accessibility.
• I check the accessibility of online forms to ensure that they are accessible to keyboard users and screen reader users. I check that they will continue to work when scripting is turned off or not available.
• I conduct the audit myself or bring my two disabled colleagues on board to help. They bring their own perspective and specialist expertise to bear on the audit.

The cost of a full audit can vary depending on the complexity and size of the website. Costs start at £2000. If my disabled collegues are working with me on your audit, the cost starts at £2500.

• A live audit of your section of your website. Jim Byrne will work through a section of your site with your developers/designers/web editors pointing out any issues found, why they make the website inaccessible, what WCAG 2 guidelines they relate to and how to fix the issue..
• This service includes a half-day training in the techniques of accessible web design.
• The process involves assessing the website against a selection of the W3C WCAG checkpoints – in an informal group environment. This allows discussion, and instant clarification of points made, and means questions can be asked related to access issues as they arise.
• You will receive a detailed report and a checkpoint table with a summary of whether your site passed or failed on each checkpoint covered.
• Website developers will be armed with an understanding of the importance of accessible web design and be motivated to make the required changes to the website.

Cost start at £4500. The training is tailored to your needs.
