Testing tools

This comes with the warning that no accessibility test is complete without thorough manual testing. However the following are some of the tools and software I use in my testing process. 

Essential browser extensions

• Colour contrast checker - check a page for colour contrast issues.
• Axe DevTools - run automated tests against a page
• Sa11y bookmarket - scan a page for common errors
• Accessibility Insights for Web - guides you through testing and tools for visualising interactions.
