Testing Web Accessibility

Summary Automated web a11y tests can free up our QA team from manual testing every part of our application…but…they can’t automatically, and magically, make our site accessible. We should use automated a11y tests as one step of a larger testing process. Adrián will show you some testing tools, libraries and techniques to increase the a11y test coverage of your code with a simple React application example.

Adrián Bolonio Experienced Web Team Lead, Frontend Developer, and Web Accessibility (a11y) advocate. I’m from Spain, but since 2012 I’ve been living and working in Vienna (Austria). When I’m not at the office I enjoy a good read, working my way through any delicious recipe, and indulging my love for travelling to new places.
