WCAG references
  • 2.5.1 Pointer gestures (A)

Official methodology to test criterion 11.10

Test 1 (11.10)

iOS and Android
  1. Identify functions on the screen that require complex gestures (look for instructions in the interface or in documentation associated with the application), for example
    • using two or more fingers simultaneously;
    • tracing a trajectory (such as the swipe gesture).
  2. Check that there is an alternative method of performing the associated action using a simple gesture, for example pressing a single key on the keyboard or a button.
  3. If this is the case, the criterion is validated.
