Abstract
The current situation for the accessibility assessment of web applications is encouraging, though not sufficient. Many efforts have been made for the development of various tools that carry out the evaluation of web pages. However, their effectiveness is somehow incomplete. In this work we propose a new framework that has adopted the latest web standard and supports a plethora of assessment configurations to meet the user needs.
