Cypress is a modern end-to-end testing framework for web testing automation.

You can reproduce real user behavior on the page with @Cypress_io. This is ideal when setting up automated testing for #UI / API or backend and for #accessibility.

We love seeing how #GAAD has evolved within the community. Kudos to Charlotte Riggle & the entire @awscloud team on the GAAM at @amazon (Global #Accessibility Awareness Month) highlight in the Wall Street Journal.

[Diamond @DWSLA]

#InclusiveDesign requires having a diverse team in our design thinking workshops including researchers, UX / UI designers, #Accessibility SMEs, PO, and developers

[Diamond @DWSLA]

Accessibility Kits like the one by Indeed and Stephanie Hagadorn can help with #InclusiveDesign to annotate for #accessibility, explain designer intent, speed production, cuts down on meetings, and eliminates confusion.

[Meryl Evans, CPACC @merylkevans]

Love this new @Zoom feature that I had not seen until attending @DWSLA webinar on inclusive design. When someone off-screen is talking, the interface lets you know who it is. I would not have known otherwise unless captioner knew person's name.

Awesomeness!
