Web Accessibility Report Generator
This is a command-line tool that generates web accessibility reports for a single URL or multiple URLs from a sitemap. It uses the axe-puppeteer
library to analyze web pages for accessibility issues and provides detailed reports on any violations found.
Prerequisites
Before running the tool, make sure you have the following dependencies installed:
- Node.js (version 20 or above)
- npm
Installation
- Clone the repository or download the source code.
- Open a terminal and navigate to the project directory.
- Run the following command to install the required dependencies:
npm install
Usage
First, generate the dist files with npm run build
This should output the compiled files to the dist
directory
Afterwards, use the sandbox file to generate anything you'll need. By default, we'll get the entire set of results from helptheweb.org
node bin/test.js
Output
The tool will generate accessibility reports and display them in the console. For each URL, the report includes:
- URL
- Timestamp
- Violations (if any)
- Description
- Impact
- Help
- Elements (HTML snippets)
