Sauce Labs Inc., a leading provider of continuous testing solutions, has announced a strategic collaboration with Deque Systems, Inc., known for its leadership in the field of digital accessibility. This alliance aims to help organizations ensure compliance with accessibility regulations, creating inclusive digital experiences across various platforms and devices.
The partnership combines Sauce Labs’ extensive device coverage and cloud infrastructure with Deque’s expertise in accessibility. After years of collaboration, this partnership reaffirms their commitment to developing comprehensive solutions for large-scale accessibility testing.
The need for this collaboration is particularly urgent with the upcoming implementation of the European Accessibility Act (EAA), which mandates that all products and services in the European Union be accessible by 2025. This regulation, which affects sectors like e-commerce and banking, increases pressure on companies to adopt inclusive practices.
Dr. Prince Kohli, CEO of Sauce Labs, emphasized the importance of accessibility in the digital future by stating, “It’s not just about complying with regulations; it’s about building a better digital future. Our collaboration integrates accessibility directly into the development cycle, allowing teams to proactively address issues.”
Meanwhile, Preety Kumar, CEO of Deque, highlighted that the partnership ensures accessibility is a fundamental aspect of the testing process. Neel Sinha, Executive Vice President of Global Sales at Deque, added that the partnership facilitates the effective integration of accessibility into digital developments. Olavo Dinis, Vice President of Sales and Strategic Alliances for Europe at Deque, underscored Sauce Labs’ global reach and its ability to deliver superior quality in accessibility.
The advantages of this joint offering include the unification of web and mobile accessibility testing on a single platform, providing access to both manual and automated testing. The combination of real devices with Deque’s accessibility tools allows for more accurate assessments. The platform’s security and scalability also enable seamless automation of testing.
This integration provides practical guidance and detailed fixes, facilitating quick resolution of accessibility issues. Thus, teams are equipped with the necessary resources to ensure their products comply with current regulations, especially in light of the imminent relevance of the EAA.
With this agreement, Sauce Labs and Deque Systems continue to strengthen their commitment to accessibility in software development, contributing to a more inclusive digital environment while ensuring compliance with present and future regulations.
