Hi Gonzalo,

It seems like the accessibility evaluator can no longer be downloaded from the Mozilla Add-ons site. Any idea where we can find it?

Thanks,
Nicolaas

Hi,

I have found that WAVE produces a lot of false positives and that you still need to make quite a few determinations, but it is a great tool, specially for low hanging fruit like Nico mentions.

For high hanging fruit (modern UX issues) the Accessibility Evaluator [1] is pretty comprehensive, and Juicy Studio Accessibility Toolbar [2] less feature rich but has a good color analyzer.

Hi everyone,

Today, Alan Berg suggested Wave toolbar for Firefox [1] to me. After having given it a test run, I'd like to recommend that all developers try to install this and run a report from time to time during development.

The results (attached example screenshot) tell you immediately where any potential issues are, and it should be a great way to make sure that we've taken care of the low-hanging accessibility fruit. This will not take away the need to make accessibility considerations a part of design as well as doing specific accessibility testing, but should at least allow us to fix some issues straight away.

We might very well find a better tool further down the line, but this should be a good starting point.
