About Equal Access Accessibility Checker Results

ACT rule results were generated using the latest accessibility-checker from NPM using the ACT test driver. Results were created using the preview archive and the IBM_Accessibility policy. Mappings from ACT Rules to Accessibility Checker rule ids and reason codes can be found in the act property of rule definitions. Results indicate the rule ids and reason codes related to the ACT rule are generated in the following format:

RuleId1:ReasonCode1,ReasonCode2|RuleId2:ReasonCode3,ReasonCode4.

Results in this page are taken from a public test report published by IBM Accessibility. Data is published using the EARL+JSON-LD data format.
