How to do good without doing anything
summary
Claim: small automation and targeted tests prevent accessibility regressions and save time. Demonstrations use JSX accessibility, Lighthouse, react-axe and axe-core tied into git hooks and CI (CircleCI) and show ESLint, runtime console alerts, and programmatic audits. Examples include unit tests asserting aria-label presence, focusability checks on interactive components, an integration test for a visually hidden alert announcing form errors, and a Cypress end-to-end that verifies every image has nonempty alt text. Each automation runs and fails the build on real regressions.
