What kind of reasons can lead to the disconnection to the Internet?2. How would you try your best to solve the problem? Five Steps of Web Accessibility Testing Testing the accessibility of a web page is an easy job. The necessary knowledge required is your familiarity with HTML and CSS, and your ability to predict the special difficulties faced by users. The following steps are for your reference. Reading A Step 1 It may come as a surprise that sometimes invalid code works as well. The code does not necessarily leave a visible bug. It may be logically correct but its writing style doesnt meet the standard. However, valid code tends to be easier to maintain as well as being compatible with many other technologies. So first of all, in order to reduce possible problems the invalid code causes, validate your code. Step 2 Automated accessibility testing is an important step in the overall process. When writing an article, rely on the spellchecker to catch your typos even though you know you still need to go through and check out the copy yourself to make sure you have written “Dave” and not “Cave”, for instance. Automated testing finds many problems which could easily be missed by reading the code.Reading A Step 3 Hide you mouse and navigate your website using only your keyboard. Make sure every link, form field, button, or any other functionality in the page is accessible via the keyboard. This is necessary because not all people use the mouse to browse websites. Step 4 Try to carry out one or more of the tasks your website was built for. If its an online store, find a product and buy it. If its an informational site then find key information. Rememberthis is the reason you built the site and it is the reason you are making it accessible. Reading A Step 5 Web accessibility isnt just fulfilling a set of requirements or validating against predefined checkpoints. It also means quality design. So its best to have your site checked over by an expert in screen reader and user interface design. They will have an intimate knowledge of their functions and use, the frustrations of poor website design and solutions which ease or eliminate those frustrations. Web accessibility is something every company and organization needs to consider if they have or are planning to have a web presence. Its not only morally correct but increases your potential customer base. And this testing doesnt need to be difficult or expensive.
