With 15% of the global population living with disabilities, accessibility on websites remains a major issue. Despite this, many websites fail to prioritize accessibility.
Accessibility testing ensures that all users, regardless of their abilities or disabilities, can access and interact with web content. It promotes inclusivity, legal compliance, and better user experiences for everyone.
Common Web Accessibility Challenges:
Using inappropriate or unclear alternative text for images
Without accurate alt text, visually impaired users may struggle to understand the content conveyed by images, impacting their overall web experience.
Poor contrast between text and background, making content hard to read
- Inconsistent or missing heading hierarchy, making navigation confusing
- Too many navigation links leading to overwhelming or confusing user experience
- Poorly structured form labels that hinder form completion and understanding
- Using non-descriptive links that do not convey their purpose or destination
- Lack of keyboard accessibility, preventing users from navigating without a mouse
- Embedding documents that are not accessible to screen readers or other assistive tools
- Neglecting mobile-first design, affecting users with mobile devices or smaller screens
- Failing to add subtitles or captions to videos, limiting access for hearing-impaired users
