Dear [First Name]

Session 3: Introduction to Automated Testing

We’re off to a great start! We know that you have covered a lot of ground in the previous sessions and your participation in the Scavenger Hunt and the ChromeVox Activity, demonstrate that many are quickly becoming familiar with the fundamentals of Web Accessibility Auditing (some of you already do auditing).

In this session we’ll get a little more hands-on, looking more closely at Web Accessibility Testing Tools. You'll look at two of the many automated web accessibility checkers, AChecker and WAVE, and in the activity for this session you’ll have an opportunity to critique them. You'll also take a look at tools for colour contrast testing, readability testing, and HTML markup validation.

This session's tasks:
