Welcome to the December 13th release of Accessibility Insights for Web!
Accessibility Insights for Web is now compatible with Google's new "Manifest v3" requirements for browser extensions. This change does not impact how you use Accessibility Insights, but required many technical changes to how Accessibility Insights works behind the scenes.
Thanks to all of the users that helped us test these changes in our "Insider MV3" builds! We will be deprecating the "Insider MV3" version of the extension shortly after this release.
The highlight boxes Accessibility Insights for Web uses to draw attention to individual elements on a page are now easier to see, especially on pages with backgrounds whose colors are similar to the original color of the highlight boxes.

We have added a new requirement in the Assessment Links Test section! This new requirement highlights links that have visible text on the target page and helps identify mismatches between a link's visible text label and its accessible name.
We have added a new visualization in the AdHoc Tools section! This new visualization highlights UI components and shows their Accessible name (up to 40 char).
Note: If a UI component cannot have an accessible name or if the UI component doesn't have an accessible name, it will not be highlighted.

Welcome to the March 11th release of Accessibility Insights for Web!
We have added a feature to highlight potential Tab stops issues automatically!
Where possible, when you run the Tab stops test we will show a dialog indicating that possible failures were auto-detected; in those cases, the requirement will automatically be marked as Fail and a failure instance with details on the issue will be added so you can review this potential issue.
We upgraded to FluentUI V8 that includes better High Contrast support (https://github.com/microsoft/accessibility-insights-web/pull/5244)

These new results are also surfaced on the FastPass report.
