Detailed Results
| # | Test | Outcome | Notes |
|---|---|---|---|
| 1 | Login, Signup and Other Forms Accessible | 33% | There forms used for signing-in lacked labels making it hard for a screen reader user if NVDA was used and there was a Re-Captcha for registration. But instructions were clear and the tabbing order correct and in the introduction video they offered phone |
| 2 | Image ALT Attributes | 33% | Most images failed to have alt tags but they were part of the background for the web pages. |
| 3 | Link Target Definitions | 67% | There were some 'click here' links but they tended to have an explanation and other links were clearly defined with an explanation around them. |
| 4 | Frame Titles and Layout | 67% | The layout linearised well but items such as the login were then relegated to near the bottom of the links. |
| 5 | Removal of Stylesheet | 33% | Removal of the stylesheet effects depended on the web page reached, so instructional and welcome pages were good but tables hard to understand when linearised. |
| 6 | Audio/Video Features | 33% | The video viewed did not have audio descriptions or a transcription - it was explaining the game. It could be viewed through YouTube for keyboard access. |
| 7 | Video/animations - audio descriptions | 33% | The videos were linked to instructions and these were available in text on the site. The video was also hosted on YouTube and could be keyboard accessible. |
| 8 | Appropriate use of Tables | 33% | The tables were for data only but were enormous and although they had clear contrast levels when linearised they were hard work for a screen reader user. |
| 9 | Tab Orderings Correct and Logical | 67% | The tab order was good but with so many links and tables it would have helped to have had some skip to certain points in the site. |
| 10 | Page Functionality with Keyboard | 100% | Keyboard access was good but lengthy when using the tab and arrow keys. |
| 11 | Accessibility of Text Editors | 67% | Getting to the forums where the text editors exist may be difficult with a lack of labels on the separate login form and then the classic editor has some menu items that are not keyboard accessible. It is possible to reach the edit field and tab out. |
| 12 | Appropriate Feedback with Forms | 100% | Response to login was via email and this worked well. Asking for support is also via email and these responses are accessible. |
| 13 | Contrast and Colour Check | 67% | Good contrast levels with white on black. Main areas can be altered via the style sheet but all pictorial backgrounds with text remain the same and there are some odd fonts. |
| 14 | Page Integrity when Zooming | 100% | The entire site zooms well with easy reading. |
| 15 | Text size, style, blinking elements and Readability | 100% | On the whole text sizes are good although tables may be harder to read - they zoom well. |
