  25. Do I have to fix every issue? on every page?

  26. Should I attack this page by page? Or issue category by issue category?

  27. Should I fix every issue on the page I’m working on now? I can’t make the deadline if I do!

  28. Enterprise Accessibility Testing Tools

  29. Priority - Impact on User • Critical - This type of accessibility error is a brick wall. Until this is fixed, there are significant barriers for a person with a disability to use this page. • Serious - This is a very important accessibility error.  It would be very frustrating to encounter this error and it might prevent some people with disabilities from using the page.   • Moderate - This is an accessibility error.  It would be frustrating to encounter, but it would not prevent a person with a disability from using this page.  (It might, however, make them decide to no longer use your site or services).   Minor - This is technically an accessibility error. It is unlikely to cause problems, but should be resolved to fully comply with the WCAG 2.0 AA standard.
