Professional accessibility evaluations offer a thorough and meticulous analysis of all WCAG 2.2 criteria applicable to your tool, encompassing assessments with assistive technology and disabled users. These audits not only assist teams in adhering to accessibility standards and regulations but also contribute to heightened user engagement and enhanced SEO.
In this talk, we present the top accessibility errors found in open source tools used in the internet freedom community through manual and automated testing on web and mobile applications. We will share currently examples and case studies of our ongoing accessibility solutions with the open source tools offered to the internet freedom community that actively works towards countering surveillance and censorship in repressed environments. We'll be covering open source tools simulating the user experience of a person with disability (screen reader user) and other assistive technologies. Ultimately, products developed through the accessibility guiding principles will possess unparalleled quality, providing everyone, including people with disabilities, the opportunity to utilize them.
