    Manual testing by trained evaluators can identify context-dependent, subjective, and nuanced accessibility barriers that automated tools cannot detect.

  6. What does 'remediation' mean in the context of an accessibility evaluation?

    Answer: The process of correcting identified accessibility barriers in a product

    Remediation refers to the process of correcting accessibility issues that were identified during an audit or evaluation.
