WCAG Conformance as Guaranteed Accessibility

Knowledge

WCAG conformance is evidence about defined requirements, not a guarantee that every disabled user can complete every task. Combine standards evaluation with realistic user testing. Investigate observed problems against applicable criteria before classifying them as gaps beyond the standard, and keep scope and limitations explicit.
