Check all image and SVG elements are accessible.

Image ALT: Accessibility Testing for Images & SVG

'Image ALT' is a user-friendly Chrome extension designed for the purpose of basic accessibility testing on images and SVGs. It identifies all the images inserted in a webpage and checks their method of insertion. The extension verifies the presence of ALT texts, identifies decorative images based on various attributes, and highlights images missing ALT attributes. For SVGs, it checks the presence of accessible names, categorizes SVGs based on certain criteria, identifies decorative SVGs, and generates messages for each case to provide a detailed analysis.

User reviews

I've tried all the ALT text viewing extensions I can find on the Chrome Web Store and this is my favourite. It's not perfect, I have to refresh my browser in order to remove the overlays and the overlays are a bit larger than necessary, but fine for checking emails, which is what I want it for.
