Introduction

How accessible is the David Costello;Democratic;Maine web page at https://www.costelloforsenate.com?

This digest gives one answer to that question. Eleven different tools (Alfa, ASLint, Axe, Editoria11y, Equal Access, HTML CodeSniffer, Nu Html Checker, QualWeb, Testaro, WAVE, and WallyAX) tested the page to check its compliance with their accessibility rules. In all, the tools define about a thousand rules, which are classified here into about three hundred accessibility issues.

The results were interpreted to yield a score, with 0 being ideal. The score for this page was 4193, the sum of 690 for the count of issues, 2330 for specific issues, 0 for unclassified rule violations, 445 for tool-by-tool ratings, 596 for the count of violating elements, 0 for the page preventing tools from running, 132 for browser warnings, and 0 for delayed page responses.

How the page was scored

Introduction

This is an explanation of the scoring of the page.

Motivations for scoring

Why score? Specifically, why aggregate many facts about a page into a single number?

One motivation is to simplify comparison and tracking. If you want to compare a page with other pages, or if you want to track changes in a page over time, aggregating many test results for each page into one page score simplifies the task. It becomes possible to say things like Page A is more accessible than page B or Page A is becoming more accessible over time.

Another motivation is to influence behavior. A score arises from decisions about importance, urgency, and other attributes. People may use scores to award benefits, impose costs, or prioritize work. So, scoring can influence who gets and does what.

How to score?

Scoring is subjective. Accessibility testing tools use various scoring procedures, based on various ideas.

The built-in scoring procedures of Testilo are based on the idea that multiple attributes should affect a web-page accessibility score, including:

Some ideas found elsewhere in accessibility scoring are rejected by the Testilo procedures:

Scoring method summary

The scoring method is found in the code of the procedure. The file for any procedure tspnn is in the file procs/score/tspnn.js within the Testilo package.

The score computed by this procedure for any page is a non-negative number. The numbers represent accessibility faults, so a higher-scoring page is considered less accessible than a lower-scoring page. The best possible score is 0.

The procedure makes the score of a page the sum of 7 components:

Scoring method details

The above component descriptions omit various details.

About a thousand tool rules are classified into issues in the tic50.js file used by this procedure. Each of those rules has a quality, ranging from 0 to 1. When the issue score is computed, the count of violations of each rule is multiplied by the quality of that rule. Whichever tool has the largest quality-weighted violation count for an issue, that count is treated as the instance count for the issue. Thus, if 8 tools each report 15 violations within the issue, and their rule qualities are all 1, the instance count is 15, not 120. Moreover, the issue itself has a weight, ranging from 1 to 4, representing its importance. This instance count is multiplied by that weight. That product is further multiplied by the issueCountWeight value, namely 10. That final product is further adjusted if the issue is inherently limited in instance count. For example, if the issue is that the page html element has no lang attribute, the instance count is limited to 1. If there is such a limit, the maxWeight value, namely 30, is divided by the actual instance count and the quotient is added to 1. That product (or 1 if there is no limit) is multiplied by the instance count, and then the result is treated as the contribution of the issue to the issue score.

Each solo (not yet issue-classified) rule violation is multiplied by the sum of 1 and the ordinal severity of the rule, to produce the solo score.

Each rule violation reported by each tool is severity-weighted in the same way as solo rule violations are. Then the sum of those violations is multiplied by the toolWeight value, namely 0.1, to produce the tool score.

The count of elements reported as violators of any rule is multiplied by the elementWeight value, namely 2, to produce the element score.

The count of prevented Testaro rules is multiplied by the testaroRulePreventionWeight quantity, namely 30, and the count of other prevented tools is multiplied by the preventionWeight value, namely 300, to produce the prevention score.

The log score is the sum of several components:

Each of these components is multiplied by a weight found in the logWeights object.

Finally, the latency score is based on how much longer it took for the page to become loaded and stable than expected. The expected total duration in seconds is the normalLatency value, namely 22 seconds (that is 2 seconds per visit, multiplied by the 11 visits of the 11 tools). This is subtracted from the actual total latency, and that difference is multiplied by the latencyWeight amount, namely 2.
