Web accessibility audits for products that now have to comply.
Pearly Quality is a one-person practice doing two things: web accessibility audits against WCAG 2.2 and the European Accessibility Act, and small-group live online workshops on software testing — accessibility, AI in testing, test management, and the human side of QA.
Send the address of your site or app and you get a fixed-price quote within 48 hours, with the scope spelled out. Tested by hand with a keyboard and a screen reader as well as automated tooling, and written up so your developers can fix it.
Find out where you actually stand.
The European Accessibility Act has applied since June 2025, and an automated scan will not tell you whether you meet it. An audit will: a scoped pass against WCAG 2.2 Level A and AA, every issue reported with the criterion it fails and the fix, in the order your team should tackle them.
- A fixed-price quote within 48 hours — scope, exclusions and a date, no call required.
- Tested by a person, with a keyboard and a screen reader, not a scanner report with a logo on it.
- Evidence you can hand over for an accessibility statement, a VPAT or a procurement questionnaire.

WCAG 2.2 Level A Explained for Testers: The Complete Checklist
WCAG 2.2 has 31 Level A success criteria — the accessibility floor. Every one of them, what a failure looks like, and how a tester actually checks it without buying a tool.
The AI Broke Your Software. Now It Wants to Test It.
The AI breaking your software and the AI testing it are the same story. Why verification — and a real tester in the loop — is where the value now lives.
SW Tester Job Market Review — From the Human Side
What tester forum threads reveal that analyst reports never will — and how to read them for observations, not conclusions, when deciding your QA career.
It Was in the Manual — Eight People Still Died
A radiation-therapy system's documented limitation still killed eight people. On the distance between "documented" and "safe", and testing for the confident wrong answer.
What happens in a workshop?
Reserve your seat
Small groups, capped at 10–16. You'll get a confirmation and a short pre-read a week before.
Show up live
A focused session on Zoom. Cameras on for the small-group parts, off for the demos.
Work, don't just watch
Every session has hands-on segments — code, audits, scenarios. You leave with something you've actually done.
Take it back to work
You get the slides, the bibliography, and a private follow-up channel for two weeks after the session.
Before you book.
Do you do accessibility audits, or only workshops?
Both. An accessibility audit is a paid engagement on your own product: a scoped pass against WCAG 2.2 Level A and AA, tested by hand with a keyboard and a screen reader as well as with automated tooling, and reported issue by issue so your developers can fix it. Send the address of the site or app through the form on the accessibility audit page and you get a fixed-price quote within 48 hours. The workshops teach your team to do this work themselves; the audit is me doing it for you.
How much does an accessibility audit cost?
It depends on the scope, so there is no list price. The quote names a fixed price, exactly what is in scope, what is deliberately out of scope, and a date — and it arrives within 48 hours of the request. There is no agency margin and no sales team in between, which is the main reason it costs less than the equivalent elsewhere.
Does the European Accessibility Act apply to us?
The European Accessibility Act — Directive (EU) 2019/882 — has applied since 28 June 2025 to a defined list of products and services offered in the EU, including e-commerce, consumer banking, e-books, electronic communications and passenger transport services. Microenterprises providing services are exempt. Whether your particular product is in scope depends on what it is and where it is sold; settling that question precisely is part of an audit quote rather than something left hanging.
Who are the Pearly Quality workshops for?
Working software testers and QA leads — from people a couple of years in who want more depth, to seniors and test managers who want a focused half-day on a single topic. Every session says who it is pitched at on its own page, so you can pick the ones that match where you are.
Do I need to be technical or know how to code?
No. The workshops are about testing judgement, not a particular tech stack. Where a session touches code or tooling it is explained from first principles, so you are not left behind for not being a developer.
Are the sessions live, or are they recordings?
Every workshop is live and online — usually a half-day on Zoom, with hands-on segments and a short break. Free webinars are sometimes recorded and posted to the YouTube channel afterwards, but the paid workshops are run live only, because the value is being in the small group rather than watching a video.
How big are the groups?
Deliberately small. Paid workshops are capped at 10 to 16 people so everyone can actually take part; free webinars run larger, up to about 50. The cap is the point — it is a working session, not a broadcast.
What do the workshops cost — are they free?
Both. There is a free live webinar most months, and paid half-day workshops alongside them. Paid seats are priced per session, with an early-bird rate if you book ahead; each workshop page shows the exact price and what a seat includes.
Are the workshops online or in person?
Online by default — live on Zoom, open to testers anywhere a call reaches. The occasional session is run in person in Budapest, and when it is, its page says so clearly.
What language are the sessions taught in?
English. The slides, the live discussion, and the written follow-up are all in English.
How does registration work?
From the workshop page: free webinars take a quick registration, and paid workshops take a secure card payment via Stripe to reserve your seat. You get a confirmation, a calendar invite, and a short pre-read the week before the session.
One monthly note on the craft.
Field notes, a recommended read, and the next workshop on the calendar. Once a month, never more.
