Hi I'm James I'm buck the product manager for the testing group in the verify stage at gate lab today, I'll be previewing a couple of the items the team is going to be working on for the upcoming 1238, milestone, you'll, find links to the 12-8 kick-off page in the verify stage, Direction page in the comments below the video, and you can always reach me at J hi buck at gate live.com or by commenting on items with group testing label in the gate lab project.

So I'm really excited about issue number two: five: five: six: six, automated accessibility scanning of review apps. This is our first step into accessibility, testing. We've heard from users that accessibility of their apps for all users is important, but they either don't know how to test for accessibility or the testing. They're doing is very ad hoc or inconsistent from change to change. So this first change is gonna leverage. Our existing gitlab review, apps, we're gonna, run an accessibility scan against those to generate and deliver a report of accessibility as a downloadable artifact.

We look forward to feedback from the community about how this feature works, and we hope that you'll comment and vote on the follow-up features that we're looking at and link to those in the notes below we're actively soliciting feedback for which of those to tackle as a next step as we continue in DD accessibility testing category.

The other item I want to mention today is number 2, 7 2 to 7 it's a small, but we think useful change for users who are visual review tools so you're. Like me, you get frustrated because you can get lost navigating to a specific page that changed as part of a merge request just to leave some feedback in there through the review app and the visual review tools. So this change will help that by allowing you to navigate directly to that changed page. That includes the visual reviews to water.

Those rope is a drop down of pages changed in the merge request. The same way, the review apps button works today, so we think that this is a great change for those users of visual review tools. As always, please let me know your thoughts and feedback through the comments in these issues or feel free to email me directly at J hi muck at get lab comm about these or issues in any of the testing categories. Thanks.
