Implement a routine and consistent website testing and evaluation process for GSA, such as the DHS Trusted Tester Process or equivalent testing protocol that conforms to the ICT Baseline.

User Story

As a GSA website manager I want to create and publish 508-conformant sites and content So that all my customers are able to access and use my site

Acceptance Criteria

Given that GSA IT implements a standardized testing method When GSA IT scans my site Then I see that my site meets all testing criteria

Hi @CharlesEPopelka , would you mind reviewing this for accuracy? Please edit if necessary. Thanks!

GSA IT will begin running AMP scans on all our public-facing websites. (For this purpose, "public-facing websites" means all sites in our Touchpoints inventory tagged as "production" that are not APIs or critical infrastructure, which works out to 213 sites, as of 12/1/2021) This will help GSA establish a baseline for conformance to accessibility standards on the following 5 criteria: headings, table format, alt text, color contrast, html attributes The top two levels of content will be scanned, and we plan to eventually feed report results into Touchpoints.

Who is the contact for AMP? I can assist with getting the data from Touchpoints.

RachelF commented 2 years ago

@ryanwoldatwork Mark Buchko is the contact. I'd downloaded the touchpoints inventory and sent over to him the other day, so he has the list of sites/contacts. Mark is also coordinating some AMP training next week. Once we start getting test results, we would love your help to find a way to pull the testing results into touchpoints.

Met w/TTS and GSA IT team today. IT has successfully completed AMP scans on 146 sites in our GSA inventory, and is working on next steps, including training, and coordination w/EDX to add data to touchpoints.
