Written notes on accessibility work

What automated testing can and cannot check, what a demand letter actually asks for, and how to keep a record you can show someone later. No compliance promises, because nobody can honestly make one.

  • What automated accessibility testing cannot find

    Automated tools detect roughly 30 to 40% of WCAG success criteria. This is what falls in the other 60 to 70%, why a machine cannot judge it, and how to test for it yourself.

The limits of everything written here

Automated testing detects roughly 30-40% of WCAG success criteria. It cannot determine whether a site is legally compliant, and it is not a substitute for manual review and assistive-technology testing. This report is a record of what automated checks found on the date shown - nothing more, and nothing less.

These guides describe how we do the work and what the tooling can see. They are not legal advice, and we are not a law firm.
