Hello Aman,

There is no tool that does 100% accessibility evaluation. Accessibility evaluation takes a manual assessment and functional evaluation with screen readers. Tools can help in checking some of the validation.

Those are some Firefox extensions that can help:
- Wave Toolbar
- Web Developer Toolbar
- Firebug

For the coding level:
- WCAG 2.0 techniques and failures can be a good thing to start with. The WCAG quick ref is easy to use www.w3.org/WAI/WCAG20/quickref/.

- Check also http://webaim.org/intro/#training and http://www.w3.org/WAI/eval/Overview.html

Good luck,
Rabab
