Level AAPerceivable

What it means

UI components and meaningful graphics need at least 3:1 contrast against adjacent colours.

How to meet it

Ensure buttons, form borders, icons and focus indicators have 3:1 contrast.

How AccessScan checks this

This criterion needs a rendered page or human judgement (for example colour contrast, focus visibility, or media review), so it’s part of manual testing and our upcoming deep scan rather than the free static scan.
