Avaliação de acessibilidade visual em duas ferramentas da engenharia de requisitos: Astah e Bizagi.

Abstract

Requirements tools are an important resource in the software development process and should be obtained for any user who has an interest or need to use them. Among the possible users of these tools is the group of people who have visual impairments. People with this disability have a direct impact (positive or negative) in carrying out their activities according to the level of accessibility presented by the tools. This work evaluates the visual accessibility presented in two requirements tools used in the early stages of Requirements Engineering, Astah and Bizagi, using verification techniques via checklists supported by accessibility evaluation criteria identified through this work . The results observed from the tools accessibility assessment, allowing a better selection of requirements tools to be used in software development projects, so that people (whether blind or sighted) elicitation phases and requirements documents.
