Changelog — A11y Scanner

v0.6.0 Sep 20, 2026

Easily raise bugs in Testing Manager directly from A11y Scanner results.
Once your organisation is connected, select a project from the dropdown when starting a scan.
From results, group by issue and click Raise Bug - complete the modal to send the issue to Testing Manager.
Bug includes all occurrences of that issue including URL and location.
If needed, a CSV with all occurrences is automatically added to the bug as an attachment.
Once raised, issue reference displayed in A11y Scanner.

New feature - ability to group findings that occur on each URL into a single issue containing all the URLs and locations where each occurrence is found. This condenses the results into an easier to read list of issues.
New By issue tab switches the results of a scan to group occurrences by issue.
When By issue is selected, click on an issue to expand and show all the occurrences of that issue.
Updated filtering and severity counts when switching between By occurrence and By issue tabs.
When expanding pages canned list, it is now possible to click on a page to show a filtered list of issues just for that page. Click the close icon next to the page chip to go back to all results.

Fixed PDF export showing "URL list (0 URLs)" as the target for sitemap-mode scans instead of the sitemap URL.

Added new method of starting a scan by scanning a sitemap to obtain list of URLs, including nested sitemaps.
Results tidy-up to improve filtering of different results types, display accessibility pills for each A11y issue found, hide location column when filtering by CSS and HTML issue types and a few other fixes.

Add public `/changelog` page, version footer on every page, and an automatic Slack release announcement to `#webdepend-labs`.
Ability to scan password-protected sites - basic auth (.htaccess style) for staging or test sites and login form access for live websites and web applications.

Ability to rescan previous scans - prepopulates the scanner fields with the same URLs and settings as the past scan.
Ability to export results by csv or pdf.
