In recent years, web and mobile app accessibility has become increasingly important to enterprises as tech giants like Apple and Google have made significant investments in making their core platforms accessible to over a billion people globally living with a disability.
However, there has never been a consistent set of accessibility testing tools available across both iOS and Android ecosystems, hindering the ability for enterprises to ensure that the apps they build take advantage of the underlying platform accessibility capabilities and at Evinced, our goal is to change that.
This is why on September 14, 2001, we announced the launch of the industry’s first complete portfolio of products to enable enterprise developers to weave accessibility into their iOS and Android mobile app development process.
Today, we are very proud to announce our long-term strategic partnership with Grid Dynamics, a leader in enterprise-level digital transformation services and solutions, to accelerate the implementation of accessibility in the web and mobile app development phase.
The powerful combination of technology and products from Evinced with engineering and implementation services from Grid Dynamics is bringing transformation to native mobile and web app development by providing:
- Developer and QA solutions: Easy testing on real devices or simulators, local or in the cloud – with no SDK installation
- Automated testing: implementing accessibility in existing web and mobile automated tests – web (Selenium, Cypress, Webdriver IO etc.) and mobile (Appium, XCUITest, Espresso)
- Analytics: providing accessibility compliance solutions and engineering leadership with organization-wide analytics insights and visibility into accessibility progress throughout the software development lifecycle — from development to production
We are excited for what the future holds and are thrilled to be part of the solution creating a more inclusive environment for over 1 billion people who live with some form of disability, underscoring the critical importance of digital accessibility.
