Exploring accessibility testing

At Holmes Website, we aim to ensure that our website is accessible for all. In improving accessibility we have used several tools in our testing processes. Here’s a glimpse into what we use and why it matters:

1. Google Lighthouse (Dev Tools): This provides a thorough audit of our website’s performance, accessibility, and more. It’s our go-to for detailed changes that help us fine-tune your experience.

2. axe-core Plugin: is useful in identifying and resolving accessibility issues right from our web design start. It helps us ensure that our website meets the highest standards of accessibility.

3. WebAIM and TPGI Colour Contrast Tools: Colour contrast is important in making the content readable for all users. Tools from WebAIM and TPGI help us meticulously check and adjust colour combinations, ensuring that everyone can easily engage with our content.

4. Silktide Inspector Extension: This browser extension allows us to swiftly pinpoint and address accessibility challenges, ensuring a smoother user experience.

Thank you for joining us on this quest for a more accessible web.
