Introduction

This report is intended to present the results of the testing of to assess its accessibility compliance. This has been undertaken with the use of the Chrome Extension of the WAVE web accessibility evaluation tool. To emulate user-generated content EPrints' testdata/bin/import_test_data script has been used to import 100 publications to populate various pages under test. In addition to this one empty (unedited) publication was added and a Saved Search for "Habits" was created. Also, due to a permissions change "+eprint/remove_once_archived" and "+eprint/remove_with_email" has been added to the admin user who is logged in to test the non-public administration pages.

Where there are known issues, the comments section should describe the reasons and where appropriate how these issues are likely be addressed.
