Hands-on with Cypress Accessibility
Blog post from Cypress
Cypress Accessibility, recently launched at CypressConf 2024, is a new cloud-based product that enhances accessibility testing by integrating with the Cypress App to automatically generate detailed accessibility reports during standard test runs. Utilizing Test Replay artifacts and Axe Core®, the tool identifies potential violations of the Web Content Accessibility Guidelines (WCAG) without requiring additional plugins or special test code. It provides sortable and filterable reports, highlighting issues like missing alternate text for images and discernible text for buttons, which are crucial for users with disabilities. The product aims to facilitate debugging and improve accessibility by offering live HTML and CSS examples for each detected issue, allowing developers to address these problems directly in the browser. Cypress Accessibility supports workflows for identifying critical issues, understanding their severity, and debugging them, and it can also be configured to fail CI jobs based on accessibility violations.
