This tool runs a set of tests against a set of URLs to verify whether each one meets the BBC accessibility guidelines.
This project is a work in progress, but it is stable and you can use it to test the accessibility of your website, or add use it in your web project today.
There are two different ways you might want to use bbc-a11y. Choose the guide that best describes you:
-
I am non-technical and I want to use bbc-a11y to test a website
-
I am a developer or tester and I want to add bbc-a11y to my web project
We welcome contributions of all shapes and sizes. If you want to help, please refer to the guide that best describes you:
-
I would like to raise an issue with a bbc-a11y standards check
-
I would like to change the code
Not all of the guidelines are covered by automated checks. Some guidelines are very difficult or impossible to cover with automated tests, others are partially covered or work in progress, as summarised here
