Python library to integrate axe and selenium for web accessibility testing.

Project description

axe-selenium-python-dev was forked from https://github.com/mozilla-services/axe-selenium-python on date 29/10/2020 all credits to them, there was no official pypi distribution available which supports axe-core 3.3.2 so took the opportunity to create this to support others like us

This version of axe-selenium-python-dev supports all changes in repo https://github.com/mozilla-services/axe-selenium-python before date 29/10/2020

This version of axe-selenium-python-dev is using axe-core@3.3.2.
