It is meant for personal, non-commercial use to inform the community on what constitutes accessible web design and accessible content. It identifies errors in Web content related to Section 508 standards and/or the WCAG guidelines for Web accessibility. Cynthia Says allows you to test individual pages on websites and provides feedback in a reporting format that is clear and easy to understand!
