For each success criterion, we mark it “Applicable” if there is relevant content and “Not applicable” if there is none. An applicable success criterion is “Conforms” if it is met on all tested pages, and “Does not conform” if it is not met on any one of the pages. Success criteria that are not applicable are treated as “Conforms.”
