Accessibility at Roster Flow

What has been built in

• Every form field has a visible label, and errors are written out in words rather than shown only in colour.
• Tables are real tables with row and column headings, including the calculator and the reports.
• Moving a shift on the roster has a keyboard path as well as drag and drop.
• Tabs move with the arrow keys, and the product pictures on the website carry a description a screen reader reads out.
• Nothing needs to be installed: the staff app runs in the phone’s own browser, with its own zoom and text size.

What is known not to work well yet

• Placing a venue on a map needs a pointer. The address search is the keyboard route, and it can be less precise.
• Shifts cannot be dragged on a phone. On a small screen a shift is moved by opening it and changing its times.
• A clock in photo needs a camera. A business that needs another route can switch photos off.

How it is checked

Changes are checked with a keyboard and at phone widths as they are made. A full manual test against the Web Content Accessibility Guidelines has not been published yet.
