Enhance Web Accessibility With LambdaTest Accessibility Automation

Ensuring that digital platforms are accessible to all users, including those with impairments, is a moral obligation and a legal requirement across different countries. Manual accessibility testing alone is often time-consuming and can miss subtle yet critical issues due to human error. Therefore, it is recommended that automated accessibility testing be used to help consistently cover the complex requirements of accessibility standards like Web Content Accessibility Guidelines (WCAG).

To boost web inclusivity, we at LambdaTest are now live with the Accessibility Automation platform that enhances the accessibility testing process, seamlessly integrating with your build cycles and simplifying ongoing maintenance tasks.
