Web Accessibility Testing Checks

This document discusses various checks that should be performed when testing a product's accessibility. It separates the checks into two categories: [1] Checks that can be automated like checking page titles, headings, image text alternatives, and color contrast], and [2] Checks that need human testing like clarity of subtitles, whether elements are focusable using a keyboard, responsiveness of layouts, and modification of audio levels. It emphasizes that while automated checks are important, human intervention is also necessary for thorough accessibility testing.
