  2. What is AODA Website Compliance Test? The AODA Website Compliance Test is a process designed to evaluate and ensure that a website meets the accessibility standards outlined by the Accessibility for Ontarians with Disabilities Act (AODA). The primary goal of this test is to make digital content accessible to all users, including those with disabilities, by adhering to the Web Content Accessibility Guidelines (WCAG). Key Aspects of the AODA Website Compliance Test: Assessment Against WCAG Guidelines: 1. The test evaluates the website against the WCAG 2.0 or 2.1 standards, specifically at Level A and AA, which are the required compliance levels under AODA. Identification of Accessibility Barriers: 2. The test identifies barriers that may prevent users with disabilities from accessing and interacting with the website. This includes issues like poor color contrast, missing alternative text for images, non-accessible forms, and more. Combination of Automated and Manual Testing: 3. The compliance test typically involves a combination of automated tools to quickly detect common accessibility issues and manual testing to assess more complex interactions and content that automated tools might miss. User Testing: 4. In some cases, the test includes feedback from real users with disabilities to ensure that the website is truly usable and accessible from their perspective. Reporting and Remediation: 5. After the test, a report is generated detailing the identified issues, along with recommendations for remediation. Organizations can then take corrective actions to make their websites compliant with AODA.
