Usability & Accessibility Testing
WCAG-aligned accessibility testing and real-user usability evaluation for products everyone can use.
Why Usability & Accessibility Testing Matters
We test with screen readers, keyboard-only navigation, and contrast-analysis tools to validate your product is usable and compliant for every visitor, not just the majority case.
Tools & Technologies We Use
What We Test
What This Looks Like In Practice
WCAG 2.1 AA Audit Before a Public-Sector Contract
We run a full manual and automated accessibility audit (axe, NVDA, keyboard-only navigation) against WCAG 2.1 AA criteria, since a scanner alone typically catches well under half of real issues.
Screen Reader Walkthrough of a Checkout Flow
We complete an entire purchase using only a screen reader and keyboard, documenting every point where a sighted-only design assumption breaks the flow for a blind user.
Heuristic Usability Review of a New Feature
Before a feature ships broadly, we evaluate it against established usability heuristics (visibility of system status, error prevention, and the rest) to catch friction a functional test wouldn't flag.
What You Walk Away With
Why We're a Good Choice for Usability & Accessibility Testing
Accessibility testing done well requires actually using the assistive tools your users rely on, not just running an automated scanner. We test with real screen readers, keyboard-only navigation, and contrast analysis, pairing that with heuristic usability evaluation so you get both WCAG compliance and a product that's genuinely easier to use, for everyone.
Common Questions About Usability & Accessibility Testing
Do you test with real screen readers, or just automated accessibility scanners?+
Both - automated tools (axe, WAVE, Lighthouse) catch the mechanical checks, but we also test manually with real screen readers (NVDA, VoiceOver) and keyboard-only navigation, since that's where the more meaningful usability gaps show up.
What accessibility standard do you test against?+
We test against WCAG 2.1/2.2 guidelines and can scope specifically toward ADA or Section 508 readiness depending on your compliance requirements.
Is usability testing separate from accessibility, or combined?+
We offer both together or separately - heuristic usability evaluation and user-flow testing pair naturally with accessibility testing since both are ultimately about whether real people can actually use your product.
