Subject: Substitute for axe Expert Page Insights?
No previous message | Next message →

Good morning:
There was a feature in axe Expert called Page Insights that provided a map of headings, links, images and landmarks, along with their names to judge at a glance if they are all correct. We have been talking with Deque about the fact that this isn't available in axe DevTools or DevTools Pro (the Intelligent Guided Testing feature does a watered-down version but not what we need). Has anyone found an equivalent tool? 
Thanks much,Jane Vincent, University of Michigan

Have you tried the ANDI tool used in the Trusted Tester process?

https://www.ssa.gov/accessibility/andi/help/install.html

With it you need to do each of those separately but it will show you heading structure with the structures component, links with the links/button tool and so on.

And this extension for Chrome is a good one too:

Hi Jane,

I'm not sure this would look the same as what you are describing but the
ARCToolkit Chrome plugin has a Highlights section where you can click
buttons for various types of website elements like Headings, Landmarks, Tab
order etc where it will place temporary labels over those elements on the
webpage to show you where they are located.

Here's the plugin:

I think there's also a stand-alone app version, I haven't personally used
it though so can't say if it functions exactly the same.

Hi Jane,

AInspector for Firefox 3.1 has a highlight "all" feature when you are
looking at rules related to landmarks, headings, links and images.
The sidebar has detailed information on accessibility information for each
element as it is selected from a list.

Link to Mozilla Add-on page:
https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/ainspector-wcag/

NOTE: AInspector is free to use and open source and has recently been
updated to support rules for WCAG 2.2 requirements.

There is another tool for both Firefox and Chrome to show the headings and
major landmarks on a page:

Good day, Jane,

WAVE will report headings and regions in the Structure tab, including heading levels. It shows interactive elements and their accessible names in the relatively recently added Order tab, which also shows the tab order of those elements. It remains free, as always. Alternative text is still displayed in the page itself. So, you won't find that in one view, but it's all available.

Hope that's helpful.

Thanks!
