Automating Peace of Mind with Accessibility Testing and CI

Did you know that accessibility test coverage and continuous integration (CI) go hand-in-hand? Automated tests can catch roughly 30-50% of accessibility issues with minimal effort, depending on your rule set.

We’ll look at open source tools and accessibility testing practices that can help your team develop a pragmatic and sustainable approach to software, benefiting many people with disabilities.
