Standards Compliance & Testing

With any web-based solution, it's very important to have compatibility with the widest range of web browsers. Robust testing, possibly automated, is vital within the software development lifecycle. As standard, we supply our clients' websites fully quality tested, using the five major web browsers - Internet Explorer, Firefox, Opera, Safari & Chrome. Browser compatibility, testing and standards compliance, though linked, usually have different importance depending on the target audience and sponsor.

Accessibility compliance comes in many differ forms. For example, public, charity and government sponsored websites, for obvious reasons typically mandate accessibility compliant features defined by the W3C Web Accessibility Initiative (WAI) guidelines. Whether your accessibility requirements are 'A', 'AA' or 'AAA', we can tailor our page design and choices of technology to meet these requirements.

Mark-up compliance standards, like accessibility, exist in different versions and are defined and validated by the World Wide Web Consortium (W3C). HTML, XHTML or CSS can all exist with different markup compliance. Sometimes it can be advantageous and justified to use non-standard markup to provide feature rich functions. However there is always a trade-off in that the benefits of employing non-standard markup should always outweigh the reasons for not using it. Specifically XHTML 1.0 Strict, XHTML 1.0 Transitional, XHTML 4.0 can be supplied where necessary for given projects, please contact us about your mark-up compliance project requirements.

Our featured websites have been quality tested for use with the following internet browsers:

  • Windows Internet Explorer versions 7.0.5 through 8.0.6001
  • Mozilla Firefox versions 3.0.3 through 3.0.11
  • Opera Software Opera Browser version 10.10
  • Apple Safari version 3.1.2 through 4.0.4
  • Google Chrome version 4.0.249.89

Each website has been validated and has a minimum markup validation quality standard, compliant with W3C XHTML 1.0 Transitional. Our sites integrating Sharepoint technology are presently not supplied as W3C XHTML 1.0 Transitional compliant. For more information and project specific requirements, including browser compliance, please contact us.
