Testing challenges

 Day 29 # find 3 accessibility issues without using the evaluation tool.

I was browsing an art and craft website to check issues for accessibility. 

First, I switched off my mouse pad and tried to keyboard focus on the page. When I was tabbing on-page, after search it’s not navigating to other elements on the page.

3. When I was tabbing from search its directly navigating link to the footer page not on the main content
