How this site was tested, with the results.
This site aims to meet WCAG 2.2 level AA. It is a concept project and the church is fictional, but the tests below were run on this site.
Test results, October 28, 2026
| Check | Result |
|---|---|
| axe-core (WCAG 2.0 and 2.1 A and AA, plus best practices) | 0 violations on 14 pages, at phone and desktop sizes, plus the search page with results and with no results |
| Lighthouse accessibility (3 pages: home, sermons, visit, phone profile) | 100 on every page tested |
| Lighthouse performance | 95 to 100; the home page is the heaviest because of its photos |
| Lighthouse best practices | 100 on every page tested |
| Keyboard | Skip link is the first stop and every stop shows a visible focus ring |
| Reflow at 320 and 640 pixels wide | No horizontal scrolling |

Search
Search runs in your browser using Pagefind, with no data sent to a server. The search box and the section menu have labels, the result count is announced to screen readers, and results are a list of links.
What was fixed during testing
- The month labels in the date circles were too faint against the dark red. They are now lighter.
- A decorative glow behind the home page headline made the page scroll sideways at 320 pixels wide. It is now clipped.
- Date circles are excluded from search results, so results do not show text like "Nov5".
- Cover pictures for sermons and posts are decorative and hidden from screen readers. The photos on this site are computer-generated for the concept. They are not real people, customers or places.
- The photos were resized to about twice the size they show on screen, which brought the home page performance score back up.
Not yet tested
- Manual screen reader testing (VoiceOver, NVDA), including the search results announcements. This statement will be updated when it is done.
- Lighthouse "SEO" shows 60 to 63, not 100, because the site is deliberately marked
noindexso search engines skip this concept project.
Tools: axe-core, Lighthouse 12, Pagefind, and Nest Co.'s own scripted checks.
