Accessibility Testing

Accessibility is the practice of making your websites usable by as many people as possible.
Ensuring that digital content and applications are accessible to and can be used by people with disabilities.

The AQM advantage

  • We provide the speed and economy advantage of automated testing along with the thoroughness of manual testing. 
  • We have users with various disabilities that are part of the team, ensuring that your product not only meets the guidelines but is also user friendly. 
  • We work with some of the most renowned NGOs in the disability sector, ensuring that we are always in touch with the real end users.
  • We are STQC certified by the Government of India for testing for accessibility. Some of the reference standards  of STQC accessibility certifications are:

     ISO/IEC/IEEE 29119(1-3):2013,(4):2015
     GIGW 2018
     WCAG 2.0 / 2.1 (A & AA)

  • Accessibility requires invasive technologies to interpret content and functionalities for the user. It is important to balance this against other features of your application like security and vulnerability. AQM provides testing across the whole spectrum of quality, thus allowing a balanced solution across all parameters.
