Tests
Is an environmental quality checklist of the media used in the service used?
Is the automation of compression of all media used implemented?
Has an alternative to each media been offered (replacement of a video by an image or text for example)?
Precisions
The volume of data transferred increases the environmental footprint of the service. It is necessary to provide the necessary media to display the service in the appropriate compression in order to improve the service and increase its sobriety.
Use Case
Browser tools/consoles allow to check compliance w/ best practices (CHROME: extension greenIT : best practices)
