System and method for accessibility testing of a web application is disclosed. Initially the system is configured to receive an accessibility standard and a level of conformance to be achieved for accessibility testing of a webpage associated with the web application. The system is further configured to identify a first set of an accessibility guidelines based on the accessibility standard and the level of conformance. The system further identifies a set of elements present in the webpage and determines a second set of the accessibility guidelines based upon the set of elements and a set of common guidelines applicable to all the webpage's of the web application. Furthermore, the system computes a number of occurrences of each element from the set of elements present in the webpage. Further, the system is configured to determine the time required for testing the web page using different combinations of testing tools by using an optimization engine based on the second set of accessibility guidelines, the level of conformance, and the number of occurrences of the element of each type in the webpage. Further the system enables performing a rule based analysis on the time required for testing the webpage using different combination of testing tools in order to determine a combination of accessibility testing tools to be used for accessibility testing of the web application.
