Access Denied #61: Progress blockers

1 minute read

Gary: I keep seeing accessibility tickets in our sprint.

Sarah: Yes, we tackle a few every sprint.

Gary: Wouldn't it be easier to dump them all in the backlog and tackle them all in one go?

Sarah: No, consistency is key.

Gary: But it's inefficient. Accessibility is blocking progress.

Sarah: Accessibility isn't blocking progress. It is progress.

Gary: But we could ship faster without it.

Sarah: We could also ship faster without testing our code.

Gary: Exactly!
