Accessibility testing

Find real accessibility issues. Actually fix them.

Most accessibility tools stop at a list of violations — or worse, paper over them with an overlay widget. BugPort scans your site for WCAG 2.1 failures and turns every finding into a bug report with evidence, so your team can fix the underlying problem and show the work.

Roughly 95% of the web's top million home pages have detectable WCAG failures.

WebAIM's annual analysis of the top 1,000,000 home pages keeps finding the same thing: the overwhelming majority of sites ship detectable WCAG 2 failures — low-contrast text, missing alt text, unlabeled form fields, broken link text. These are exactly the failures automated scanning catches and real fixes eliminate.

How BugPort handles accessibility

Scan

BugPort scans your pages in a real browser and maps every failure to a WCAG 2.1 success criterion with severity and the affected element.

Triage

Findings arrive as structured bug reports — with screenshots, selectors, and context — in the same BugPort workspace your team already uses for bug reporting.

Fix and verify

Developers fix the underlying markup, styles, or behavior; re-scans verify the fix and your finding count drops for real, not cosmetically.

Share the record

Share reports with stakeholders, clients, or counsel showing what was found, what was fixed, and when — a genuine remediation record.

Why overlay widgets don’t protect you

Accessibility overlays promise compliance with one line of JavaScript. The record says otherwise — and an inaccessible site with an overlay on top is still an inaccessible site.

  • Overlays don’t fix your code.The WCAG failures stay in your markup, styles, and behavior. A widget can only paper over some of them in some browsers for some users.
  • Overlay-equipped sites still get sued.Plaintiffs routinely file against sites running overlay widgets — having one installed has not stopped digital-accessibility lawsuits.
  • Regulators have taken notice.In 2025 the US FTC ordered an overlay vendor to pay $1 million over claims that its AI widget could make sites fully WCAG-compliant.
  • The people they claim to help disagree.Hundreds of accessibility practitioners and users with disabilities have publicly asked site owners to remove overlays because they interfere with assistive technology.

Accessibility testing that fits how you already work

BugPort starts free. Accessibility scanning is part of the same workspace your team uses for bug reporting — one tool, one workflow.

Frequently asked questions

How is BugPort different from an accessibility overlay?

Overlays inject a widget that tries to modify your site in the visitor's browser; the underlying WCAG failures remain, and overlay-equipped sites keep getting sued. BugPort finds the underlying failures and gives your team what they need to fix them at the source.

Which standards does BugPort scan against?

Scans are mapped to WCAG 2.1 success criteria at the A and AA levels — the levels referenced by the ADA guidance, the European Accessibility Act, and most procurement requirements.

Can automated scanning find every accessibility problem?

No — and anyone who says otherwise is selling something. Automated checks reliably catch a large share of WCAG failures. BugPort makes those findable and fixable, and its bug-reporting workflow is built for layering human review on top.

Who sees the findings?

Your workspace. Findings are bug reports: assign them, discuss them, attach evidence, and track them to done — the same way your team already handles bugs in BugPort.
