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.
