Scans in Project

The Scans section provides a consolidated view of all accessibility scans performed for a project.
It helps teams monitor scan activity, understand scan outcomes, and track accessibility progress over time.

Scans Overview

At the top of the page, a summary view presents key scan metrics for the project:

  • Total Scans
    Displays the total number of scans triggered for the project.

  • Completed
    Indicates the number of scans that finished successfully.

  • Failed
    Shows the number of scans that could not be completed due to errors or interruptions.

  • Partially Completed
    Represents scans where only a subset of pages were successfully scanned.

This overview allows teams to quickly assess the overall health and status of scan execution.

Scans List

Below the overview, a detailed table displays all scans performed for the project.
Each row represents a single scan and includes:

  • Scan Date
    The date and time when the scan was initiated.
    Selecting the scan date opens detailed results for that scan.

  • Pages
    The number of pages included in the scan.

  • Fail
    The count of accessibility issues that failed automated checks.

  • Validate
    The number of issues requiring manual validation.

  • Suggestion
    The number of advisory or best-practice suggestions identified.

  • Total Issues
    The combined total of fails, validations, and suggestions.

  • Scan Status
    Indicates whether the scan is:
    1 Completed
    2 Partially Completed
    3 Failed

Understanding Scan Results

Scan results reflect the accessibility state of pages at the time the scan was executed. Comparing scans over time helps teams:

  • Track accessibility improvements or regressions
  • Measure remediation progress
  • Identify recurring issues across multiple scans

The Scans section acts as a historical record of accessibility testing for a project. By reviewing scan outcomes and trends, teams can make informed decisions, prioritize remediation efforts, and continuously improve accessibility conformance across their digital properties.
