Abstract
Accessibility is an issue that has not been given due importance, since software products developed that lack it continue to be observed. Software developers are not considering the accessibility in the Software Development Life Cycle (SDLC), giving a sense that there is not enough information about this topic. This paper presents a Systematic Literature Review (SLR) with 40 primary studies comprehended between 2015 and 2021, which addressed accessibility in any of the four main phases of the SDLC: requirements, design, construction, and testing. The results indicated that the design phase is the most considered when discussing accessibility, followed by the requirements and testing phases, leaving the construction phase as the least addressed. This SLR has the purpose of aiming software engineers with the most updated view of activities and artifacts used to address accessibility in the SDLC, including techniques to verify it in a software product.
