Chapter and HiSoftware.
The accessibility and content quality checkpoints
tested will appear in the report along with detailed reporting for those
checkpoints.
Some checkpoints have been tested programmatically
and the results of the test are shown as pass or fail. The individual components
that comprise each check are listed
For some checks, the report will give the result of
NA, or (Not Applicable). This means that there were no elements on the test page
that required testing for that check.
There are some checkpoints that require a manual test
by the user. If there is no value listed in the report, then that is a
checkpoint that requires the manual check.
If you selected to run the alt text quality reports,
those reports will appear below the accessibility reports.
The Alt Text Quality Report reports image alt text
which contains alt text values such as the word "image" either as an individual
word, or part of another word.
This is flagged as it might not completely describe
the image it represents.
The Alt Text Quality Report reports image alt text
that may have a image file extension in the alt tag such as .jpg or .gif. This
can alert you to cases where the author or authoring tool may have added the
image name as the value for alt text.
The Alt Text Quality Report reports where the image
alt text may be less than 8 characters or greater than 80 characters in length.
If the text is too short or too long, it is not as helpful.
The Alt Text Quality Report reports when you might be
repeating words in your alt tag more than six times per image. Sometimes,
authors may add keywords to their image alt tags in an attempt to trick the
search engines into providing a higher rating for the page.
If you had checked to "include file source on
accessibility failures", the source code of the page tested will appear in the
report at the bottom.
The line numbers used in the accessibility and alt text quality reports will appear on the left side.
