Every Labrador project is made up of pages, components, and user journeys, the individual items you test against WCAG criteria. Each item is audited independently, so you can track progress and log issues at a granular level. Pages represent full web pages such as a homepage, a checkout flow, or an article template. Components represent reusable UI elements, a navigation header, a carousel, a modal dialog, or a video player, that appear across multiple pages of the site. User journeys represent multi-step task flows, such as signing up for an account or completing a purchase, that span more than one page.

​
Add a Page, Component, or User Journey

1

Open your project

From the Projects dashboard, click the project you want to add items to. The project view shows all pages, components, and user journeys already in your audit scope.
2

Click + Add

Select the + Add button to open the dropdown, then choose Page, Component, or User Journey depending on what you want to test.
3

Enter a name

Type a descriptive Name for the item, for example, Homepage, Product Listing Page, Navigation Header, or New User Signup. Use a name that makes it immediately clear what is being tested.
4

Provide a URL

Enter the full URL of the page, component, or the starting page of the user journey. The URL is required if you plan to use AI-assisted remediation via the Labrador Chrome extension, Labrador uses it to open the exact page when generating recommendations.
5

Upload a screenshot (optional)

Optionally upload a Screenshot of the page, component, or user journey to help you and your teammates visually identify it during testing. This is especially useful when you have multiple items with similar names.
6

Click Create

Click Create to add the item to your project. It will appear in the project view and is ready to audit immediately.
Always enter a valid URL for each page, component, and user journey. The Labrador Chrome extension uses this URL to navigate directly to the page when you trigger AI-assisted remediation from an issue. Without a URL, the AI recommendation feature will not work for that item.

Page, Component, and User Journey Testing

You can structure your audit scope in several ways. The approach you choose affects how thoroughly you cover the site and how efficiently you avoid repeating work.
Test every WCAG criterion against a complete web page. This approach is best suited to pages with unique content and structure, for example, a contact form, a product detail page, a blog article, or a checkout screen.When to use it: When the page has content or functionality that does not appear elsewhere on the site, and you need a full per-page conformance record.

​
Organising Your Audit Scope

Choosing the right sample of pages, components, and user journeys to include is as important as how you test them. You do not need to test every page on a large site, the goal is a representative sample that covers all distinct page types, templates, interactive patterns, and critical task flows.
For most sites, 10 to 20 pages, components, and user journeys combined is a practical and defensible scope. Focus on coverage of:
  • Each unique page template (home, listing, detail, form, error, authentication)
  • Key user journeys (search, checkout, registration, support)
  • Pages with complex interactivity (modals, carousels, accordions, date pickers)
  • Reusable components that appear site-wide
If many pages share the same template, testing one representative example from that template is usually sufficient. Document your sampling rationale in the project description so stakeholders understand what was and was not tested.
Test one representative page per distinct template. If your site has 200 blog articles that all use the same layout, test one article page, not all 200. Record your rationale in the project description.However, if a template varies significantly based on content type (for example, an article with embedded video versus an article with only text), consider adding both variants as separate items so you can capture the full range of interactive patterns.
Your plan determines how many projects you can create per month, but there is no limit to the number of pages, components, and user journeys you can add within a single project. Add as many items as your audit scope requires.
