Releases axe for Microsoft’s New Edge Browser

General News

Summary

Like its Chrome and Firefox counterparts, axe for Edge is a simple to use, automated testing tool that helps developers identify and resolve common accessibility gaps that prevent or limit people with disabilities from interacting with websites and their content. These accessibility defects, when left in place, prohibit people with visual, auditory, motor, speech or cognitive disabilities and their various assistive technologies to experience the full benefit of the web. Axe browser extensions are used by over 135,000 people each week, and utilize the industry-standard axe-core open source rules library for WCAG and Section 508 accessibility. Without the continuous use of features like captions, alt-text for screen readers, zoom functions, simple presentation layouts and more, digital content may be inconvenient or impossible to use. Deque (pronounced dee-cue) is a web accessibility software and services company, and our mission is Digital Equality.
