Audits: An audit is a group of web pages or PDFs that you choose to check for accessibility issues. You can run an audit anytime, or set it to run automatically on a schedule (such as daily or weekly). When you run an audit, Equalify scans those pages and documents to find accessibility problems.
Blockers: Blockers are accessibility errors that prevent users with assistive technologies from navigating your content. The primary goal of Equalify is to help you eliminate these blockers. The "Blockers Over Time" chart on your dashboard is a key indicator of your digital accessibility health. Equalify’s testing methods evolve alongside industry standards. Equalify’s blockers are based on best practices for automated tests, giving you a reliable summary of where issues live. While no automated tool can catch everything, this is an excellent starting point for resolving accessibility violations in web content and PDF files.
Bugs: Bugs are technical problems in the Equalify platform. For example, system errors including interface failures, a feature not working as expected, or results not displayed properly. Bugs should be reported so they can be fixed. Review the 🔗 “Reporting bugs” page for more details.
Feature Request: A feature request is a suggestion for improving Equalify. This could include adding a new tool, improving a report, or making something easier to use. Review the 🔗 “Reporting bugs” page for more details.
Open Source: Open source software is software that is publicly available for anyone to review and improve. Equalify is an Open Source tool and uses trusted open source tools as part of its accessibility scanning process.
Scans: Scans are automated accessibility checks. Equalify scans your web pages and PDFs to find issues and organize them by type and severity so you know what to fix first.
WCAG: WCAG stands for Web Content Accessibility Guidelines. These are international guidelines that explain how to make websites and digital content accessible to people with disabilities. Equalify uses WCAG standards to check your content and identify accessibility issues.
