Re: Practice for testing digital content : EU standard

IBM has created a "unified' checklist of all the unique requirements
(provisions, success criteria, checkpoints, etc.) from 3 of the leading
technical standards and issues a single unified unique list of requirements
so that product and project teams and non-accessibility experts can be more
productive by not getting caught up in the identical, redundant, and
overlapping requirements.  IBM also has a recording and reporting system
that then gathers the responses by unique checkpoint and publishes the
appropriate conformance reports based on ITI's International VPAT® format
	WCAG 2.1
	US 508
	EN 301 549

Subject:	[EXTERNAL] Practice for testing digital content : EU standard



Greetings:
I am trying to ascertain the general practice when testing websites,
mobile apps and e-docs against EN 301 549:
1. Is it limited to WCAG 2.1 only as referenced in Clauses 9, 10 and 11?

2. Are additional tests performed as applicable, for instance certain
clauses under:
- Clause 5.4 Preservation of accessibility information during
conversion that may apply to ICT with authoring tool features
- ICT with Video Capabilities  (Clause 7)
- Clause 10.5 Caption positioning and 10.6 Audio description timing
for non-Web e-docs

3. Is product documentation for the ICT always  included within the
scope of the assessment and tested against Clause 12?

I believe these questions are relevant  to ICT (websites,
mobile/desktop apps and e-docs)  of public sector orgs. covered by Web
Accessibility Directive (WAD) as well  as those produced by commercial
vendors not directly covered by WAD but perhaps by EU-AA.

Thanks very much for your views!
Best wishes,

Thanks,


Can Clause 7

EN 301 549 V1.1.2
