Hi WSG Friends!
The company I work for is considering dropping WatchFire for testing
because of the price. I'm really concerned about not being able to test
code against specific accessibility guidelines like WCAG 1.0 or 2.0. Do
any of you know of any cheaper (or free) applications that do just
Hi
Your best bet would be to look at the tools provided by Vision Australia
visionaustralia.org under accessible solutions.
They have a free toolbar you can download.
I am also looking at providing web accessibility testing services as a
part of the services offered by CPK Web Services. Would
Thanks, Chad. I will look into this. By the way, as a plus, it would be
nice if any future tool we used generated reports as well. Clients just
have to have those reports! Sigh. If what you mentioned does that then
great but if not then that is okay. Getting the testing done is what

We are currently negotiating with one of the major automated
accessibility tool vendors to resell their tool in the UK. We cannot
sell into the US so I have forwarded your message and they should
contact you. In my opinion their tool is better than WatchFire and
should also be cheaper.
Any tool
Thanks, Steve! I look forward to hearing from them! Quite right on
manual testing! I do quite a bit of it and couldn't agree more!

a great resource...

Hi,
It's worth looking at what W3C has to say - see
http://www.w3.org/WAI/eval/Overview.html - but it depends what your goals are.

conformance check in accordance with the WCAG 2.0 standard?
Cheers, Andrew

The Visionaustralia accessibility toolbar looks interesting but only works
on Windows and IE5 and above. This could hardly be described as a 'web
srandards compliant' application.
Has anything been done that is platform independent or for Mac or Linux?

There's a range of code level checker options available as add ons for FF, and
some web based options.

Hi all.
I also believe the team who designed the web accessibility toolbar for
IE have also done one for Opera.
