Accessibility Testing Services

In today's world, the widespread use of applications has become an integral part of human life. People worldwide rely on various apps to carry out a multitude of tasks. However, it's important to recognize that a significant portion of our global population, exceeding a billion individuals with diverse disabilities (including visual and hearing impairments, cognitive challenges, and motor limitations), still faces difficulties accessing these apps. In the pursuit of equal access for all individuals, including those with disabilities and special needs, businesses must embrace the concept of accessibility testing.

At TestingXperts (Tx), we are driven by a vision of a fair and inclusive world. We offer an extensive array of accessibility testing services to make this vision a reality. Our team boasts advanced expertise and a profound understanding of accessibility testing standards, such as the Web Content Accessibility Guidelines (WCAG) 2.0, WCAG 2.1 (Level A: 30, Level AA: 20, Level AAA: 28), WCAG 2.2 (Level A: 34, Level AA: 24, Level AAA: 28), as well as specific regulations like Section 508, the UK Equality Act, Stanca Act, Rights of Persons with Disabilities Act, 2016, and more. Through our services, we ensure that applications adhere to standardized accessibility practices.

The advantages of accessibility testing for businesses are noteworthy. Firstly, an app that complies with accessibility standards can shield businesses from potential litigation and lawsuits. Secondly, a seamlessly accessible app can significantly expand user reach and engagement, thereby enhancing the brand's overall reputation. This commitment to accessibility not only aligns with legal requirements but also reflects positively on the brand's ethos, showing a dedication to inclusivity and user-centered design.

Accessibility Testing Process

Our accessibility testing team initiates the process by engaging with the client to gain a comprehensive understanding of their accessibility requirements.
Testers assess the scope of the project, determining the number of screens to be tested and specifying the browsers and platforms to be included in the testing.
Following the identification of the screens to be tested, our testers define the specific accessibility testing tasks for websites, native apps, or mobile apps.
Our dedicated teams conduct accessibility testing to ensure that the application aligns with the accessibility standards set forth by W3C, including WCAG 2.0, WCAG 2.1, and the recently introduced WCAG 2.2. Additionally, we ensure compliance with the Act Section 508 of the US Rehabilitation Act of 1973, the Rights of Persons with Disabilities Act, 2016 (RPWD), and the Equality Act 2010.

Our commitment is to deliver accessible applications that cater to the diverse needs of users while adhering to these essential guidelines and regulations.
