Potential A11y Violation:
Missing non-conforming alternative

Point of Failure

If a page is non-conformant, it should provide a link at the beginning of the page that points to a conforming alternative version.

Available Automation Evaluation

In checking known available linting and testing tools, these are our findings.

Linting Cannot Exist

It is not possible to lint for this error at this time; component templates are not differentiated from page templates.

Testing Could Exist

Potentially Automatable: If accessibility issues are found on the page, check for a link at the beginning of the page (since this could be a link to a conforming alternative).

Other Test Methods

In addition to automated tests, there are other types of tests that could be conducted to prevent this potential violation.

Developer Authored Test Could Existing

If the developer knows the page will be non-conformant, a link should be added to a conforming alternative, and a test should be added to prevent regression.

Manual Test Must Existing

Manual testing for this item must exist, because there is no bullet-proof way to automate a test for this item. To manually test: Review page for conformance. If non-conformant, check to see if the beginning of the page has a link to a conforming alternate version.
