axe-github

Custom rules and configuration recommendations for the axe-core library for GitHub projects.

Custom rules

These are the custom rules contained in this package:

• aria-attribute-is-valid
• autofocus-in-dialog
• avoid-both-disabled-and-aria-disabled
• empty-summary
• menuitem-should-be-interactive
• nested-forms
• redundant-aria-label-aria-labelledby
• submit-reset-button-must-be-in-form

Configuration

We recommend running axe-core defaults.

Basic usage

import axe from 'axe-core'
import customRules from '@github/axe-github'

axe.configure(customRules)
axe.run(...)

Playwright configuration

For the custom rules in this library, their associated check functions are not serializable to a Playwright page. To configure axe, you'll need to load and evaluate configure-browser.ts within the page context. Axe should be loaded on the page before configuring.

const configSrc = fs.readFileSync(
  require.resolve('@github/axe-github/configure-browser'),
  'utf8'
)

page.evaluate((configSrc) => {
  window.eval(configSrc)
}, configSrc)
