Add accessibility testing tools section - #466
Conversation
Added a Testing Tools section to the Web Accessibility page with 4 widely-used tools: - axe DevTools (Deque's browser extension) - Pa11y (CLI accessibility tester) - RatedWithAI (free WCAG scanner) - WAVE (WebAIM's visual feedback tool) This fills a gap in the accessibility resources — the page previously only had 2 links (ARIA guide + A11Y Project). Testing tools are essential for developers implementing accessible web experiences.

Hi! Circling back on this PR — it's been a couple of weeks and I wanted to check if there's anything I can adjust or clarify. The Accessibility Testing section fills a natural gap in the Workflow category and would complement the existing performance testing resources. Happy to make any changes. Thanks for your time! |

Closing this as redundant with my own #464, which I opened four days earlier on the same file. I stacked two overlapping PRs on Nothing here is lost by closing it. Sorry for the duplicate — #464 is the one to review. |
