Test Cases for Evaluating Accessibility Testing Software?

Hello, all.

Is anyone aware of a webpage or series of web pages that could be used as
test cases for objectively evaluating different accessibility testing
software. They would be designed to trigger specific warnings or errors
based on WCAG criteria. Ideally, these test cases would be something that
was produced by a standards-making body like the Web Accessibility
Initiative, rather than something provided by a vendor, which would, of
course, be of less value.

Also, if anyone knows of a list of different features that accessibility
testing suites might include, that would be helpful to in making a
comparison matrix.

Thanks.

Best,
Rob
