[Athen] Testing Web Accessibility

Hi Jessica,

My colleague here at IU developed an Accessibility tool bar for Firefox called the Web Accessibility Quick Check Extension (W15YQC)<http://blrichwine.github.io/W15yQC/>. There is also the Web Accessibility Toolbar (WAT)<http://www.paciellogroup.com/resources/wat/> for IE. These will allow you to log in to the website and then run some automated checks page by page.

As Paul pointed out, many commercial tools indicate they have some ability to do this.

Thankx,
Joe

Good morning,

Does anyone know of a way to test web accessibility for a site that you have to log into? I love WAVE, but it doesn't work for me to test course pages in our LMS that require a log in.

Thank you,
