title = "Functional accessibility testing using best practices",
abstract = "The problem with many automated web accessibility testing tools is that they assume a repair oriented approach to web accessibility. The functional web accessibility approach is based on best practices design approach to creating web resources. The best practices build upon the use of web standards to increase developer acceptance, since developers benefit from the design efficiencies of web standards while they build highly accessible websites based on best practices coding techniques. Automated testing tools can be used to look for the best practices coding patterns to verify accessibility. The best practices are essentially effective techniques to implement web accessibility standards like Section 508 or guidelines like the W3C Web Content Accessibility Guidelines.",
