Official methodology to test criterion 3.13

Test 1 (3.13)

iOS and Android
  1. Identify pre-recorded time-based media on the screen.
  2. Check that at least the following features are present:
    • a play function;
    • a pause or stop function;
    • if the media has a sound track, a function that enables the sound to be switched on and off;
  3. If the media has audio description, check that there is a function that enables audio description to be switched on and off.
  4. If the media has synchronised captions:
    • if the captions are embedded (open captions) as an image, check that they are displayed when the video is played;
    • otherwise, in the case of closed captions, check that there is a function that allows you to activate and deactivate these captions.
  5. If this is the case, the criterion is validated.
