Audit overview

Scope & approach

Our D4 engagement focuses on typical software-site flows: onboarding, dashboard, forms, and public marketing pages. The package includes:

  • Automated scans (multiple engines)
  • Manual keyboard-only walkthroughs
  • Screen-reader sessions (NVDA / VoiceOver)
  • Color contrast and visual-semantic review

Methodology

We combine tooling and human testing to remove false positives and highlight real-user impact.

Multi-engine passes identify focus, aria, labeling, and structural issues. We validate results manually to remove noise.

Complete tab sequence walkthroughs for forms, modals, menus, and custom widgets to ensure logical focus and visible focus indicators.

NVDA/VoiceOver checks for labeling, reading order, navigation landmarks, and aria roles. We record sessions and key transcripts.

Recommendations & remediation roadmap

We provide prioritized fixes grouped into three sprints:

  1. Critical fixes (forms, focus, live regions)
  2. Quality improvements (contrast, headings structure)
  3. Polish & tests (regression suite, documentation)

Each issue in the tracker includes reproduction steps, suggested code snippets, and QA steps.
