Testing Web Accessibility by Adrián Bolonio

We want our web app to be effective, efficient, and satisfying for the user, but a lot of times we don’t think about the user experience for people with disabilities, including people with age-related impairment. How can automated a11y tests and manual test help us make our interface better? When we develop a new web application, we often put a lot of work on the design, on making it beautiful and usable. In other words, we want our web app to be effective, efficient, and satisfying for the user. But a lot of times we don’t think about the user experience for people with disabilities, including people with age-related impairments. Web accessibility (a11y ) means that people with disabilities can perceive, understand, navigate, and interact with websites and tools, and that they can contribute equally without barriers.” (Source: W3C - Web Accessibility Initiative). Our role as frontend and web developers is to create clear interfaces to make people understand and care about data, independently of their disabilities or impairments, but what we, developers, often forget is to ensure that the code we write follows the Web Content Accessibility Guidelines (WCAG), and the only way to achieve that is testing, either manual or automated. Automated web a11y tests can free up our QA team from manual testing every part of our application, but, they can’t automatically make our site accessible. We should use automated a11y tests as one step of a larger testing process. https://jsconfbp.com/speakers/adrian-bolonio About Adrian Hi, my name is Adrián Bolonio. I'm a Google Developer Expert in Web Technologies currently working as an Accessibility Software Engineering at GitHub as part of a talented, diverse, and motivated team that will work on making GitHub and the Internet a better and more accessible place for everyone. When I’m not at the office I enjoy a good read, working my way through any delicious recipe, and indulging my love for travelling to new places.

Code Red: The Business Impact of Code Quality • Adam Tornhill • YOW! 2022

This presentation was recorded at YOW! 2022. #GOTOcon #YOW https://yowcon.com Adam Tornhill - Founder & CTO at CodeScene Programmer, Psychologist, Lisp Hacker, Speaker & Author of Several Books Including "Your Code as a Crime Scene" @codescene-softwareengineer6553 RESOURCES https://arxiv.org/abs/2203.04374 https://codescene.com/hubfs/web_docs/Business-impact-of-low-code-quality.pdf Adam https://twitter.com/AdamTornhill https://github.com/adamtornhill https://linkedin.com/in/adam-tornhill-71759b48 http://www.adamtornhill.com ABSTRACT Code quality is an abstract concept that fails to get traction at the business level. Consequently, software companies keep trading code quality for new features. The resulting technical debt is estimated to waste up to 42% of developers' time, causing stress and uncertainty, as well as making our job less enjoyable than it should be. Without clear and quantifiable benefits, it's hard to build a business case for code quality. In this talk, Adam takes on the challenge by tuning the code analysis microscope towards a business outcome. We do that by combining novel code quality metrics with analyses of how the engineering organization works with the code. We then take those metrics a step further by connecting them to values like time-to-market, customer satisfaction, and road-map risks. This makes it possible to a) prioritize the parts of your system that benefit the most from improvements, b) communicate quality trade-offs in terms of actual costs, and c) identify high-risk parts of the application so that we can focus our efforts on the areas that need them the most. All recommendations are supported by data and brand new real-world research. This is a perspective on software development that will change how you view code. Promise.

How ChatGPT actually works

Since its release, the public has been playing with ChatGPT and seeing what it can do, but how does ChatGPT actually work? While the details of its inner workings have not been published, we can piece together its functioning principles from recent research.
