Site checks

Lighthouse

I use the Chrome dev tool Lighthouse, for performance checks.

Pa11y Dashboard

Pa11y Dashboard which is a code monitoring tool, to check web pages for WCAG compliance.

Pa11y CI

Pa11y CI, a deOps friendly version of the pa11y tool. Note: Both Pa11y Dashboard and Pa11y CI support scripting to get pass login barriers.

aXe Scan

I like to use different tools, which sometimes highlight issues other tool may not find. Between the a11y and aXe tools, you can get a good coverage on the automation side of accessibility. Here, it’s picked up on work I need to do to improve the screenreader output, by adding a caption to the video.

Guidepup

Guidepup tools to test screenreader, and return granular screenreader output.

Web Rotor

I use the Web Rotor feature that is available with all screenreaders, which represents a page using categorised lists. It provides an easier way to navigate a web page with VoiceOver using lists of headings, links, forms and other items on a web page.
