The Accessibility Inspector has a Notifications log that you can find in Window, in its top menu, and then Show Notifications. It shows accessibility-related notifications like layout changed, screen changed, or announcements... I learned about this feature from the Accessibility Inspector in this article by @basthomas. A very recommended read to learn all about the Verifying VoiceOver with the Accessibility Inspector. https://www.basbroek.nl/verifying-voiceover

Full Keyboard Access can be tested in the simulator! So convenient! You can enable it from Accessibility's settings in the simulator. And from there, you can navigate your app by just using your computer's keyboard.

Potential benefits from grouping logical pieces of information and moving buttons to custom actions: reduce redundancy (by removing repetitive controls) and reduce cognitive load (by making easier to know what item will be affected by each action)
