Accessibility Insights for Web 2.16.0
Accessibility Insights for Web 2.16.0
Welcome to the March 30th Release of Accessibility Insights for Web
Highlights
Fixed an issue in Assessment related to showing certain decorative images as "meaningful"
Images implemented using <svg> tags, icon fonts with <i> tags, and CSS background images were previously reported as meaningful whenever they had any associated accessible text, even if they did not have a role="img" attribute (#696). In this release, we have updated the text and/or instance detection of the following requirements to consider those types of images as decorative instead (#2389):
- Image > Image function
- Image > Text alternative
- Image > Images of text
- Contrast > Graphics
Security improvements
Exported reports will now display a confirmation dialog before following links to the page being tested (#2399).
Performance improvements
Fixed performance issues when using the browser's Dev Tools to inspect elements on pages with Accessibility Insights visualizations active (#2408)

- Removed unnecessary horizontal scroll bar in the "no failures detected" in the automated checks screen in Fastpass that happened at certain window sizes (#2400)
- Changed "powered by Axe" to "powered by axe-core" in FastPass exported report footer (#2348)
- Added a note to the "How to fix" text for Contrast > State Changes requirement to clarify which elements are in scope (#2409)
- Improved how disabled Visual Helper toggles are read by ATs (#2398)
- Fixed the way our first-time telemetry dialog's title was read by ATs (#2327)
- Fixed issue where refreshing the page would prevent the correct display of the "No content available" page shown when a target page is closed (#2344)
