Accessibility Evaluation Tool
The WAVE Chrome, Firefox, and Edge extensions allows you to evaluate web content for accessibility issues directly within your browser
To run a WAVE report, simply click on the WAVE icon to the right of your browser address bar. Click the icon again or refresh the page to remove the WAVE interface.
You can also trigger a WAVE report by pressing Control + Shift + U (Command + Shift + U on Mac) or by activating the “WAVE this page” context (right click) menu item. If using Edge, the shortcut key can be defined or customized on the Manage Extensions page.

By default, macOS has limited keyboard tabbing to only ‘text boxes and lists’ as a system preference.
