I'm looking for cloud-based or open-source software simulators of visual disabilities, such as color-blindness, glaucoma, etc. that non-disabled testers can use.
Dear Sandra,
Assistive Context Aware Toolkit, is a software developed from Intel.
This software is used by Stephen Hawking.
You can download from
https://github.com/01org/acat/releases
Another tool on line is
http://www.tawdis.net/
Check the level of accessibility achieved in the design and development of web pages in order to allow access to all people regardless of their distinguishing features .
If you need a plugin for firefox
http://www.sidar.org/hera/
http://www.sidar.org/recur/aplica/hera2-2.xpi
It can help you
Thanks a lot! But I am looking not for accessibility checkers but for software tools more like this:
https://chrome.google.com/webstore/detail/spectrum/ofclemegkcmilinpcimpjkfhjfgmhieb
In this case, the simulator is for color vision disabilities.
Best regards.
Oh! You need this extension...
https://chrome.google.com/webstore/detail/colorblinding/dgbgleaofjainknadoffbjkclicbbgaa
Colorblinding
This extension simulates the website as a color vision impaired person would see.
Colorbldingin can simulate:
Red-Blind / Protanopia
Green-Blind / Deuteranopia
Blue-Blind / Tritanopia
Red-Weak / Protanomaly
Green-Weak / Deuteranomaly
Blue-Weak / Tritanomaly
Monochromacy / Achromatopsia
Blue Cone Monochromacy
Additionally, it's an open-source project hosted at https://github.com/LeonardoCardoso/Colorblinding
Yes... that is what I need but for different types of visual disabilities like glaucoma,
I know
Visual Impairment Simulator for Microsoft Windows
you can download at

Hello Sandra,
Perhaps another option could be the Colour Contrast Analyser (CCA) which has a simulator to see your interfaces in different modes. This software is not integrated in the web browser but is useful.
When you set-up the CCA you go the "Image" item in the main menu and select the "Select window (List)" or the "Select image file" or my favorite the "Screen" option.
