Breakout 3B

2:00 pm - 2:50 pm Central Time

Gina Wild, CEO of AccessibilityOz

Update to the Mobile Accessibility Testing Guidelines

Presented by:

 

Gian Wild -
CEO of AccessibilityOz

Session Description:

​

The ICT Mobile Testing Guidelines for Mobile Sites and Native Apps were developed in 2018 and 2019 by members of a committee of volunteers from the ICT Accessibility Testing community. These guidelines and related documentation are now hosted on the web by AccessibilityOz. Mobile technology moves quickly, and three years have passed, so inevitably there have been important changes. While the mobile guidelines are still relevant, there will be gaps once WCAG2.2 is released. After three years of using the testing guidelines, Gian talks about what is missing, what needs updating and, most importantly, what needs to be done now.
