Frequently Asked Questions

BrowserStack Accessibility DevTools let developers detect and fix web accessibility issues in real time — as you code. It uses the Spectra™ Rule Engine to lint your code, analyze rendered DOM states, and alert you to WCAG violations before committing changes.

Real-time scanning flags accessibility issues immediately (in your IDE or terminal), which helps you address them during development rather than after. This “shift-left” approach reduces rework and integrates accessibility checks into your CI/CD pipeline.

They can catch common issues like missing alt text, color contrast failures, heading order problems, and more. Right now DevTools Linter covers 15 WCAG 2.2 AA SCs with more planned to be added soon.
