The Mozilla-Firefox accessibility extension provides testing
for Section 508 and WCAG related requirements.
http://firefox.cita.uiuc.edu/

NOTE: We plan on adding validation features to an upcominging
version.

There is also a beta version of a new tool called the
Functional Accessibility Evaluator that tests for functional
accessibility features of web resources related to Section 508
and WCAG.

http://fae.cita.uiuc.edu/

Both of these tools are under development and would be
interested in feedback.
Jon
