Need To Know - accessibility test report

This is the full Accessibility test report for the East of England Ambulance Service NHS Trust Need To Know website.

Rather than use a sample of test pages to test, we tested every page, which allowed us to guarantee that every page could be tabbed through, checked with text to speech application, tested on mobile devices and tested with four testing suites:

  • Google Chrome Lighthouse
  • WAVE
  • Axe Beta v4.7.2(axe-core 4.1.2)
  • Read Aloud text to speech in Chrome

The initial test was with Lighthouse. Our minimum requirement for the page test was 100/100. If this failed in any way, we rewrote the code.

After reaching the Lighthouse target, the page was retested with WAVE.

WAVE allowed us to get an overview of what was happening on the page.

Then the site was checked for use with a keyboard. Every element, including forms, had to be accessible from the keyboard only.

The page was then tested using the Read Aloud text to speech plugin from Chrome.

The final test was the most thorough. We used Axe Beta v4.7.2 to deep test the page. Anything that failed here was fixed and retested.

Here are the results (please scroll left to right on mobile devices):
