I'm gonna give it a 4. It is a very useful tool and it has helped me pickup the main items in code. For a JS Image Gallery it insisted that the alt tags were missing when they weren't as the images are loaded dynamically on click and the trigger image is a button click with "aria-src". Love some feedback on that. Sometimes there is one problem not six and the first one causes the other 5 and that is not as clear though that is nitpicking the internet I think.

This plugin is not accurate. My website has a meta description and media queries and the plugin is saying its not found on the website which is false. I wanted to give this a higher rating, but it is not 100% accurate. sorry.
