In this episode of Beyond Barriers, Sumair Qaisar talks us through building robust accessibility tests, specifically explaining how currently websites with poor design can still pass the basic accessibility check but not be usable.
He explains how accessibility overlays work, how they project an illusion of accessibility without any real fixes. He goes on to explain the need to build native accessibility solutions.
He also discusses building accessible adverts, TLDRs, smart glasses that read aloud, and the inaccessibility created by no-code websites.
