Dear Friends,
Requesting you to please help me with the below-mentioned points.
I am following the attached VPAT document for U508
*Questions :*
1. When a client asked for U508 guidelines for assessment, do we need
also test the application using the WCAG 2.0 guidelines.
2. Do we have detailed success criteria numbers for U508 as like WCAG.
For Example: In the VPAT document "Table 1: Success Criteria, Level A",
in the first row. We have success criteria number *1.1.1* for Non-Text
content, similarly do we have any number like that for Non-Text content in
*U508* or it is enough putting them as follows " Also applies to Revised
Section 508: 501 (Web)(Software)". Kindly help me with this.
Regards,
PU
