I know nothing about this program, but it looks like it would be useful in some situations.

Access Bridge Explorer is a Windows application that allows exploring, as well as interacting with, the Accessibility tree of any Java applications that uses theJava Access Bridge to expose their accessibility features, for exampleAndroid Studio and IntelliJ.
Access Bridge Explorer consumes the same API that Windows screen readers supporting the Java Access Bridge (e.g. nvda, Jaws) consume. As such, Access Bridge Explorer can be useful for validating accessibility support or identifying accessibilty issues of such Java applications without having to rely on a screen reader.
