Web Accessibility Audit
Overview
Conduct a comprehensive WCAG 2.1 accessibility audit of web pages and UI components, identifying violations with specific fix recommendations and code examples to achieve AA or AAA compliance.
When to Use
- Before launching a new website or major feature
- When preparing for ADA or Section 508 compliance certification
- When accessibility issues are reported by users with disabilities
- When integrating accessibility testing into CI/CD pipelines
- When conducting quarterly accessibility health checks
Instructions
- Accept URL(s) or HTML/component source code to audit.
- Parse DOM structure and compute accessibility tree.
- WCAG 2.1 Perceivable checks:
- Color contrast: text and background must meet 4.5:1 (AA) or 7:1 (AAA) ratio.
- Alt text: all images have descriptive alt attributes; decorative images use alt="".
- Captions: video elements have captions or transcripts.
- Text resize: content reflows at 400% zoom without horizontal scroll.
- Operable checks:
- Keyboard navigation: all interactive elements reachable via Tab key.
- Focus visible: focus indicator visible on all focusable elements.
- No keyboard traps: user can navigate away from all components.
- Skip links: page has "Skip to main content" link.
- Timing: no content auto-disappears without user control.
- Understandable checks:
- Language:
<html lang>attribute set correctly. - Labels: all form inputs have associated
<label>oraria-label. - Error messages: form errors are descriptive and associated with fields.
- Language:
- Robust checks:
- ARIA: roles, states, and properties used correctly.
- No ARIA misuse: no invalid role combinations.
- Semantic HTML: headings in correct order (H1>H2>H3), landmark regions present.
- Generate report with violations by WCAG criterion (1.1.1, 2.4.3, etc.), severity, and code fix.
- Provide fixed code snippets for each violation.
