508 Wizard™
for Microsoft Visual C++
The 508 Wizard™ for Visual C++ program is executed
against the source code of Microsoft Visual C++
programs.
To determine Section 508 compliancy,
the 508 Wizard™ is easily executed
against computer directories containing the source
code of Microsoft Visual C++ programs. It analyzes
the existing or newly developed code in an automated
fashion with limited subsequent human intervention.
By merely specifying a project file for a Visual
C++ project, the tool will identify all the accessibility
errors associated with those files. The 508 Wizard™
will identify source files that cannot be located
in the report log.
The tool automatically creates
an exception report log that is suitable
for three distinct audiences: 1) The management
report will contain a compliancy summary section
that is suitable for management review indicating
whether particular code passes or fails, 2) A
QA Report- this report provides an exceptions
and warnings section detailed specifically
for QA personnel to quickly review the code of a
particular developer or group of developers to determine
compliancy status, and 3) A developers report
that contains specific and detailed information
that will assist the developers in repairing their
code and making it compliant.
The 508 Wizard™ is easily
installed and executed on Microsoft Windows
desktop computers at the customer site.
