Hi WAI Interest Group, I hope this email finds you well. I am reaching out to share a tool my team and I have been developing and to kindly ask for the community's expert fee dback. We recently released ScreenVox Version 8.0.0. We have transformed our screen reader emulator into a complete Accessibility Audit Suite (A11y), designed f or experts. We noticed that purely static analysis is often not enough for modern web applications built with React, Vue, or Angular. To help address this, we incorporated Live Runtime Monitors to audit dynamic states in live envi ronments. We would love to get your thoughts on the methodologies and heu ristics we are applying, specifically: - ARIA Mutations Monitor (SC 4.1.2): It listens to DOM changes in rea l-time. It alerts if a dynamic element changes its visual state but the developer forgot to update attributes like aria-expanded. It also alerts critically if an element is visible but retains aria-hidden="true". - Spatial Jump Detection (SC 2.4.7): We implemented a mathematical alg orithm that calculates the distance of focus jumps on screen. It triggers critical alerts if a jump is so large it would disorient users with res tricted visual fields or those using magnification software (Zoom > 200%). - Focus Tracker & Keyboard Traps (SC 2.1.2): It visualizes the tabbing nav igation trail. If focus gets trapped in a loop (common in fake modals), t he tool automatically detects it. - Fake Headings Heuristic (SC 1.3.1): We added an advanced heuristic that detects "Fake Headings" created purely with CSS styles (large fonts and b old weights) instead of semantic tags. - Color Blindness Simulators: We incorporated medical precision filters ( SVG feColorMatrix matrices) to simulate color blindness live, auditing co ntrast and color perception at the pixel level directly in the browser. Our goal is to catch critical accessibility barriers (WCAG 2.1 and 2.2) that traditional automated tools might overlook. Since these advanced Live Monitors require a PRO license, we are more than h appy to provide a free PRO license to anyone in the community willing to h elp us evaluate the tool and share their expert feedback. If you are interested in testing these runtime heuristics, please reach out to soporte@otratarea.com, and we will gladly set up your free access. Thank you very much for your time and for the invaluable resources this g roup continuously provides. Best regards, Juan José RodrÃguez Soler screenvox <https://chromewebstore.google.com/detail/screenvox-%E2%80%93-screen-reader/hmagbngpbdppedmdagahdamoflipmgdj>
