SourceProbe: web accessibility remediation framework

Web accessibility remediation process consists of four phases: validation, source identification, fix, and redeployment. Traditionally, each phase has been done separately and often manually. The root cause of an error in a web page, which is often in a server-side source, is undiscoverable. The fix is usually done in the HTML source from a browser, and is only available to that browser. This paper describes Web Accessibility Remediation Framework (code-name SourceProbe) architecture. The framework consists of components to identify and fix the root cause of an accessibility error in a web page and automate the four phases of the remediation process to reduce the cost.
