Pointer Cancellation Inspector Extension

Pointer Cancellation Inspector is a Chrome DevTools extension designed to help accessibility consultants ensure web accessibility compliance with WCAG 2.5.2. The extension scans your web pages for pointer cancellation events (such as mousedown and touchstart) and highlights elements that may cause accessibility issues. With its intuitive interface built right into DevTools, you can easily inspect problematic elements, view their associated events, and jump directly to the element in the Elements panel for further debugging.
