Hey Kalyani G,

Various tools can help identify accessibility issues, such as WAVE, Axe, and Lighthouse. These tools analyze web pages and provide reports on potential accessibility problems, making it easier to address them.

You can also use the Accessibility DevTools Chrome extension to help you perform accessibility testing and identify accessibility issues against the WCAG standard.

Hey,

I personally use Tenon, a web-based accessibility testing tool that offers both automated and manual testing. Tenon integrates seamlessly with various development tools and allows for testing individual web components or entire websites. It provides detailed reports, highlighting the severity of accessibility issues and offering suggestions for remediation.

I’ve found Pa11y to be a great automated accessibility testing tool, especially for integrating into CI/CD pipelines. It enables developers to run accessibility tests on web pages and receive detailed reports on any issues. What I like about Pa11y is that it’s customizable, allowing you to test against different accessibility standards like WCAG 2.1.
