3. Accessibility for users

  1. Are "alt" attributes used for all descriptive images?
  2. Does the site use relative units rather than absolute units for text size?
  3. Do any aspects of the layout break if font size is increased?
  4. Does the site use visible skip menus?
  5. Does the site use accessible forms?
  6. Does the site use accessible tables?
  7. Is there sufficient colour brightness/contrasts?
  8. Is colour alone used for critical information?
  9. Is there delayed responsiveness for dropdown menus (for users with reduced motor skills)?
  10. Are all links descriptive (for blind users)?
