Our Accessibility Testing Services
As an accessibility testing agency, we help businesses identify and address accessibility barriers, ensuring their websites and applications are usable by everyone (see more in web application testing services and desktop application testing services)
-
Accessibility Audits
We can provide assessments of your digital products against accessibility standards. Our WCAG compliance audits can help you evaluate your websites, apps, and content against WCAG 2.1 (A, AA, AAA) to pinpoint areas for improvement. We also offer accessibility standards consulting, guiding you through relevant accessibility standards and regulations (ADA, EAA, etc.) to guarantee your strategy aligns with best accessibility practices.
-
Manual Accessibility Testing
Our accessibility specialists use assistive technologies (screen readers, keyboard-only navigation, etc.) to simulate real user experiences and discover hidden barriers. This approach uncovers usability issues that automated tools often miss and provides a more accurate picture of accessibility. Our team can also perform code review, examining your code to find accessibility issues (see more in manual QA services).
-
Automated Accessibility Testing
We leverage technology for efficient automation. Our scans use relevant accessibility testing software to quickly scan your digital assets for common accessibility problems. This provides a fast and cost-effective way to pinpoint potential issues. We can also provide integration with development, adopting automated testing to your development workflow (DevOps) for continuous accessibility checks (see more in automation testing services)
-
Mobile Accessibility Testing
You can enhance the mobile experience with Beetroot. With our mobile app testing services, you can test your iOS and Android apps against WCAG and platform-specific accessibility guidelines. We can evaluate your mobile apps with mobile-specific assistive technologies (VoiceOver, TalkBack) to detect usability challenges. This can help guarantee your mobile apps are fully accessible.
-
Usability Testing with Assistive Technologies
We can assess website and app navigation using only a keyboard to make sure usability for persons with mobility impairments. Additionally, we can test with alternative input devices (voice recognition, switch devices) to support usability, as well as evaluate your websites and apps using screen reader software to ensure content is accessible to blind and low-vision users.
-
Reporting and Remediation Support
We can create detailed reports that outline identified accessibility issues, their severity, and recommendations for remediation. These documents will give you a clear understanding of the accessibility status of your product and prioritized steps for improvement. Our experts can also help you efficiently implement the necessary changes.
-
Accessibility Consulting
We provide expert advice on how to integrate accessibility into your design and development processes. In this way, you can create a culture of accessibility within your organization.

Knowledge is a critical competitive advantage. Our expert-led workshops provide tailored, hands-on training that transforms technical teams, addressing specific organizational performance testing challenges with precision and depth.
Achieve seamless app performance:
Technology Stack
Accessibility testing tech stack typically combines automated and manual testing approaches. Automated tools rapidly scan for common barriers like low contrast or missing alt text. They often integrate directly into development workflows. Manual testing relies on assistive technologies like screen readers, keyboard-only navigation, and browser extensions.

Compliance with Accessibility Testing
Unlike GDPR, PCI-DSS, or ISO certifications, most accessibility standards don’t have formal certification processes. Instead, they provide guidelines and conformance levels that organizations can demonstrate through testing and documentation. Accessibility testing provides ongoing verification that digital products meet required standards through regular audits and assessments.
-
Web Content Accessibility Guidelines (WCAG) 2.1
The primary international standard for web accessibility. Compliance levels include A, AA, and AAA, with most organizations aiming for AA compliance. Essential for any digital product or service.
-
Section 508
A U.S. federal law mandating that all federal agencies’ electronic and information technology must be accessible to persons with disabilities. Critical for organizations working with U.S. government contracts.
-
EN 301 549
The European accessibility standard for public procurement of ICT products and services. Required for organizations operating in or selling to European public sector entities.
-
Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA)
While not a certification itself, ADA compliance is crucial for U.S. businesses to avoid discrimination lawsuits. Accessibility testing helps guarantee digital properties meet ADA requirements.
-
ISO/IEC 40500:2012
The ISO standard that directly references WCAG 2.0 guidelines, making them an international standard. Important for organizations seeking ISO certification.

Accessibility Testing Process at Beetroot
-
Initial Assessment and Planning
Our process begins with an evaluation of your requirements and goals. We review the applicable accessibility standards (such as WCAG 2.1), define the scope of testing, and create a detailed test strategy. During this phase, we also identify key user scenarios and establish testing priorities based on the target audience’s needs.
-
Automated Testing
We employ specialized accessibility testing tools to conduct preliminary scans of the software. These automated tests help find common accessibility issues such as missing alt text, incorrect heading structures, and color contrast problems. This stage provides a foundation for more detailed manual testing and helps streamline the overall testing process.
-
Manual Expert Testing
Our certified accessibility specialists perform thorough hands-on testing using various assistive technologies and testing methodologies. They evaluate keyboard navigation, screen reader compatibility, and other critical accessibility features. This stage includes testing across different browsers, devices, and operating systems to support comprehensive coverage
-
Results Analysis and Reporting
We analyze all findings from both automated and manual testing phases to compile a detailed accessibility assessment report. This report includes specific violations, their severity levels, and their impact on different user groups. We prioritize issues based on their severity and provide clear examples of non-compliant elements.
-
Remediation Support
Our team is available for consultation and support throughout the remediation process. We offer technical recommendations, code examples, and best practices to help implement necessary corrections. Regular consultation sessions make sure that remediation efforts are on the right track.
-
Final Verification and Documentation
After remediation, we conduct follow-up testing to verify that all identified issues have been properly addressed. We create final documentation including compliance certificates, detailed test reports, and maintenance recommendations. This documentation serves as evidence of accessibility compliance and provides a roadmap for maintaining accessibility standards in future updates.
