Accessibility Review
Systematic WCAG accessibility audit using browser tools — keyboard navigation, screen reader compatibility, color contrast, ARIA, and semantic HTML.
When to Use
- Pre-launch accessibility audit
- Checking WCAG 2.1 AA compliance
- Debugging keyboard navigation gaps
- Verifying color contrast ratios
- Evaluating ARIA usage correctness
- Testing screen reader compatibility
Audit Process
- Get the URL from the user or ask for it
- Open the page in a fresh browser tab
- Check keyboard navigation — Tab, Shift+Tab, Enter, Space, Escape, arrow keys
- Inspect the accessibility tree using browser snapshots
- Verify color contrast for all text elements
- Check heading hierarchy — proper nesting and semantic structure
- Review ARIA usage — correct roles, states, and properties
- Test screen reader compatibility by analyzing the a11y tree
- Identify form labeling issues — missing or incorrect label associations
- Check focus management — visible focus indicators, logical order
Output
A structured audit report with:
- Summary — overall WCAG level, critical issues count
- Findings Table — WCAG criterion, issue description, severity, location, fix recommendation
- Compliance Summary — pass/fail status per conformance level (A, AA, AAA)
