Shift Left: Accessibility beyond the Audit

About the session

The European Accessibility Act is now in effect, and you've done the hard work. Your app has passed its accessibility audit and complies with the latest legal standards. An Amazing milestone, but accessibility isn't a one-time fix! It's an ongoing commitment.

So, what happens next? How do you ensure your application stays accessible as your codebase evolves?

In this talk, we'll explore practical strategies for maintaining accessibility long after the initial audit. We'll look at how to embed accessibility into your development workflow, from automated tests to manual checks, and discuss where automation falls short. I’ll share my favorite tools and testing techniques, and explore practices that help prevent regression.

You'll leave with actionable insights to future-proof the accessibility of your application and ensure your update don't moves your application backward.
