Accessibility Testing - Gill has been doing some accessibility testing
- Not clear that we have been applying aria consistently/correctly
- Using Axe to sweep
- Need some help about what to look for
- Happy to co-develop a checklist
- Best to add to the FOLIO wide resource
- Some caution in Boulder about using checklists - potentially over prescriptive
- ERM is being used early, so is in a position to lead the way
- One approach (perhaps better suited to developers) to start with:
- use the available tooling (Axe) to find the issues
- Axe is showing a lot of noise from, eg, MCL
- not easy to identify the signal from the noise here
- fix what ERM can
- raise anything to Stripes in the same way
- see what's left
- For now, continue with keyboard testing
- Would be also useful to do screenreader testing, particularly on navigation
