-
$options
- The accessibility validation options. Where:-
standard
- The accessibility stanadard to verify against. One ofWCAG2A
,WCAG2AA
,WCAG2AAA
,Section 508
-

The step based on the contextual approach and when it’s necessary it could be used to validate the accessibility of the context element only. |
Given I am on page with URL `https://vividus-test-site.onrender.com/`
When I change context to element located by `xpath(//body)`
Then I test accessibility:
|standard|level |elementsToIgnore |elementsToCheck|violationsToIgnore |
|WCAG2AAA|NOTICE|By.id(ignore), By.cssSelector(#errors > h1 > img)| |WCAG2AAA.Principle1.Guideline1_3.1_3_1.H42.2,WCAG2AAA.Principle2.Guideline2_4.2_4_9.H30|
|WCAG2AAA|NOTICE|By.xpath(//*) | | |
