Welcome to the November 1st release of Accessibility Insights for Azure DevOps Extension!

Highlights

The Accessibility Insights for Azure DevOps Extension helps integrate automated accessibility tests in your Azure pipeline. The Accessibility Insights for Azure DevOps Extension uses the axe-core rules engine to scan websites and web apps for common accessibility issues.

In v1.1.0, we have added functionality to:

  • Support a baseline file that tracks known accessibility violations within the scope of pages that are scanned (note that baseline support is limited to static web pages at this time and is not applicable to pages that contain any dynamic content).
  • Identify changes in accessibility scan violations between the current state and the baseline file.
  • Highlight new accessibility scan violations in the combined scan report.
  • Provide guidance (via PR comments) to help the PR author to either investigate/fix new accessibility violations or to update the baseline file, as appropriate.

Check the how to use the Azure DevOps extension documentation for more information on how to get started.
