Subject: Quail as an Accessibility Testing Tool
No previous message | Next message →
I am just starting my discovery on the accessibility testing tool Quail. I
understand several larger corporations leverage it for their ongoing
auditing. While all this sounds good, I've encountered 'red flags' that
concern me.
Example: As I read Quail's Accessibility Information Library, there's an
article that states "All links must have a "title" attribute." From my
experience the opposite is true.
I would like to hear others experience with using this tool; accuracy, ease
of use, etc. Thanks in advance.

Hi Denis,
I worked with QuailJS a couple of years back, and although my memory
of it is pretty fuzzy by now, I'm sure you could pick and choose the
tests you want to run or ignore. So you could switch off the check for
title attributes inside links.
Best, Lynn
