WAVE is a web accessibility evaluation tool developed by WebAIM.org. It provides visual feedback about the accessibility of your web content by injecting icons and indicators into your page. No automated tool can tell you if your page is accessible, but WAVE facilitates human evaluation and educates about accessibility issues. All analysis is done entirely within the Chrome browser allowing secure valuation of intranet, local, password protected, and other sensitive web pages.
To run a WAVE report, simply click on the WAVE icon to the right of your browser address bar, or select "WAVE this page" from the context menu.
WAVE errors align with WCAG 2.2 failures. The WAVE interface facilitates human evaluation of many other aspects of accessibility and Web Content Accessibility Guidelines, ADA, and Section 508 compliance.
Version 3.3.0.4 (December 2025) - Bug fix for scripting exception with some pages with small text. Minor interface improvements.
Version 3.3.0.3 (November 2025) provides performance, interface, and testing improvements. Improved support for ARIA headings and prefers-reduced-motion user settings.
Version 3.3.0.0 (October 2025) adds numerous new features, enhancements, and bug fixes. Resetting the extension no longer refreshes the page, thus supporting better testing of dynamic content. The Summary and Details panel are now combined. The AIM Score is presented. Viewing the Order, Structure, or Contrast tabs now filters to only relevant page icons. The WAVE sidebar can now be collapsed out of view.

Store average score: 4.1. The bars below are calculated from synced review text only, so they may be empty for extensions that have public ratings but no synced comments yet.

Something JUST broke the extension, we use it daily at work here, and today I went to use it and its now broken
The update looks so much nicer, good job! I ran into an issue where I needed to test locally and couldn't use my normal tools, and after finding this Wave plugin I don't need to any more!
Clunky; and nearly always points out non-issues with very little direction on where they are originating. You would only use this if you are a QA person for basic HTML and you need to get by not knowing any code at all.
This proved to be a very handy tool for assessing web accessibility but I wish I knew to what standard it was being measured... WCAG 2.0? A? AA? If that was added, it would be extremely helpful. Bonus points if we could select the level at which we tested.
Is WAVE up to date with WCAG 2.1?
A lot of false positives.
It is a powerful and useful tool for sure. It takes a little time to figure out the interface and be able to determine what it is telling you. It also slows down the browser quite a bit when it is in use. But again, it is very in depth and beneficial when testing a11y. Give it a try and see if it's abundant information is worth the learning curve and performance slowdown.
幾つかの「アクセシビリティ・チェックツール」を試しましたが、最も分かりやすくエラーを表示してくれます。(テストするページの画面にエラーやその他のアイコンが表示される。そのアイコンを押すと問題箇所のHTMLが表示される。視覚的に理解しやすい) ローカル環境でテストできる(テスト環境でテストできる) HTMLの書き方をもっとシビアにチェックしてくれるともっと使いやすくなる。
Excelente... Gracias
Excelente para evaluar accesibilidad web en línea con el cumplimiento de las pautas WCAG de la W3C, también se puede usar su versión web para el mismo cometido.
