Notes: This conformance report assesses core pages and key user flows, with a focus on keyboard operability, color contrast, ARIA semantics, and screen reader compatibility. Test results are based on the current environment and may vary depending on the device, browser, or assistive technology used.
Evaluation Methods Used: A combination of manual testing and automated tool testing (Lighthouse, WCAG Color contrast checker) was employed for the accessibility assessment, to ensure comprehensive coverage of potential accessibility issues. In addition, certain key workflows were tested with a screen reader (NVDA) to simulate the user experience of visually impaired users. The testing environment included Windows 11, with browser versions Google Chrome 134.0.6998.89 and Microsoft Edge 131.0.2903.112.
Applicable Standards/Guidelines: This report covers the degree of conformance for the following accessibility standard/guidelines:
