Release Notes for axe DevTools HTML Python

4.8.0 (October 25, 2023)

• Unloaded frames are now handled properly.
• The axe-core dependency is now pinned to accept patch versions only.
• Upgraded to axe-core 4.8.2.
• Added the EN 301 549 ruleset.
• Added the Trusted Tester v5 ruleset.
• For the Robot package, added plugin integration. This change fixed an issue where the Robot integration would become unstable if used with a modified Selenium package.

4.7.0 (April 27, 2023)

• Default ID
  The Python API package now sets the default ID in the JSON results file to "check" instead of null as before. The highlighted line in the following (shortened) example shows the change:

  {
    "type": "axe-devtools-result",
    "name": "axe-run",
    "id": "check",  "platform": {}
    ...
  }

  (Many lines were deleted in the above example.)

  This change makes Python results compatible with the other APIs.

• Large Results

  Limits have been increased and the Python package can now process much larger results.
