TAW3 – free accessibility testing and reporting tool

Spotted via Accessify.com.
TAW3 is a free tool to test web pages against WCAG 1.0, developed by the Fundación CTIC. It is available both as an online version (which only offers a basic, single page check) and as a powerful stand-alone java application for a variety of platforms (Microsoft Windows, Mac OS X, Linux and Solaris, among others).

I’ve took it for a test drive and really liked the clean interface, easy configuration of what checkpoints to report on and how it then reports automatic check failures and manual check warnings. You can drill down very easily into any errors and the view source pane at the bottom of the screen enables you to get to the suspect code very quickly.
