Creating Accessibility Systems to Fix Accessibility Issues, by @viscousplatypus (@AssistivLabs):
Assistiv Labs (@AssistivLabs) who you can use to test different screen readers on different browsers, in your browser, now has a cute little logo person!
I hadn’t seen this recently. :-)
Ready for #accessibility automation that’s not just 3 axe-cores in a trench coat?

Before partnering with Assistiv Labs, Asana’s accessibility team generally grouped testing into two categories: automated and manual. Assistiv Labs’ end-to-end accessibility testing service has helped produce a testing workflow that redefines automated and manual. Because accessibility feedback loops are shorter, bugs are resolved faster.
New article drop! Our friend @viscousplatypus wrote an article for us on how to move from friction-inducing “episodic” #accessibility activities to more “continuous” ones by creating systems that make it easier to do accessibility than not.
Must read for folks doing this work at larger organizations!
