Abstract

This study presents a systematic mapping of usability analysis tools focused on accessibility, aiming to identify technologies, methods, and challenges related to improving inclusive interfaces. Tools such as DUXAIT-NG, Guideliner, and MUSE were analyzed, standing out for integrating automated evaluations and specific adaptations. However, they exhibited technical limitations in customization and application to different contexts and types of disabilities. The results demonstrated the positive impact of these tools on the development of accessible software while also highlighting research gaps, such as the lack of empirical studies and the absence of real-time dynamic analyses. Based on this analysis, the study contributes by organizing and systematizing knowledge on accessibility tools, identifying research gaps that emphasize the need for greater flexibility in solutions and validations, and suggesting technological and methodological advancements. It reinforces the importance of expanding research to other databases and developing more robust and dynamic tools.
