Adobe Accessibility Conformance Report International Edition
(Based on VPAT® Version 2.4)
Product Information
Name of Product/Version: Adobe Developer Console
Report Date: November 2022
Product Description: The Developer Console enables third-party developers (Customer’s IT team, system integrators, partner developers, and individuals) to access various developer offerings across our three clouds. On the Developer Console, a developer creates projects that map 1:1 to an application (or plugin, extension, integration) they are trying to build. In the project, they add different Adobe APIs, Events, and Functions as would be required by her application, thereby gaining API keys and other credentials needed to make their application work.
Contact Information: access@adobe.com
Evaluation Methods Used: Product testing involved use of leading assistive technology, such as screen readers, screen magnifiers, and speech recognition software, as well use of the keyboard. Native platform accessibility features were also used to assist with testing. These were supplemented with techniques such as manual inspection of Accessibility API output.
