Upgrade: Bump axe-core from 4.4.1 to 4.10.2

[dependabot]

Bumps axe-core from 4.4.1 to 4.10.2.

Release notes

Sourced from axe-core's releases.

Release 4.10.2

This release prevents axe from sometimes crashing when a page changes in the middle of a test.

Bug Fixes

• get-ancestry: don't error when there is no parent (#4617) (6c07102)

Release 4.10.1

Because a few false positives were fixed, this release may see the number of reported issues go down. In pages with lots of very similar elements a performance bottleneck was fixed, allowing axe to finish sometimes up to 10x faster, although for most pages there won't be a difference. Lastly there is a small change to the ancestry selector of elements in shadow DOM. These weren't always guaranteed to be unique. The change means deduplication based on ancestry selectors may not work between 4.10.1 and older versions.

Bug Fixes

• aria-allowed-role: add form to allowed roles of form element (#4588) (d462d67), closes /github.com/dequelabs/axe-core/blob/develop/lib/standards/html-elms.js#L264
• axe.d.ts: add typings for preload options object (#4543) (72e269f)
• button-name,input-button-name,input-img-alt: allow label to give accessible name (#4607) (364eb72), closes #4472 #3696 #3696
• get-ancestry: add nth-child selector for multiple siblings of shadow root (#4606) (bdd94a2), closes #4563
• rules: Change "alternate text" to "alternative text" (#4582) (31e0f61)

Release 4.10.0

This axe-core release introduces a new rule for testing the HTML summary element. Additionally, a number of false positives have been fixed. Upgrading to this release may therefore both increase, or decrease the number of issues found on a website. Most likely the impact of upgrading from axe-core 4.9.2 to axe-core 4.10.0 should be minimal.

Features

• new-rule: summary elements must have an accessible name (#4511) (0d8a99e), closes #4510

Bug Fixes

• aria-allowed-attr: allow aria-multiline=false for element with contenteditable (#4537) (f019068)
• aria-allowed-attr: allow aria-required=false when normally not allowed (#4532) (2e242e1)
• aria-prohibited-attr: allow aria-label/ledby on descendants of widget (#4541) (07c5d91)
• aria-roledescription: keep disabled with { runOnly: 'wcag2a' } (#4526) (5b4cb9d), closes #4523
• autocomplete-valid: incomplete for invalid but safe values (#4500) (e31a974), closes #4492
• build: limit locales to valid files when using the --all-lang option (#4486) (d3db593), closes #4485
• Prevent errors when loading axe in Angular + Jest (#4456) (3ef9353), closes #4400
• Minor grammatical fixes for some rules and checks (#4499) (11fad59)
• landmark-unique: follow spec, aside -> landmark (#4469) (e32f803), closes #4460
• required-attr: allow aria-valuetext on slider instead of valuenow (#4518) (135898b), closes #4515

Release 4.9.1

This release addresses a number of false positives, which may result in fewer issues reported. It also prevents a problem where axe-core wouldn't load on pages due to a conflict with a long-ago deprecated javascript library.

Bug Fixes

• Prevent errors when loading axe in a page with prototype.js
• aria-allowed-attr: allow meter role allowed aria-* attributes on meter element (#4435) (7ac6392)
• aria-allowed-role: add gridcell, separator, slider and treeitem to allowed roles of button element (#4398) (4788bf8)
• aria-roles: correct abstract roles (types) for aria-roles(#4421)
• aria-valid-attr-value: aria-controls & aria-haspopup incomplete (#4418)
• fix building axe-core translation files with region locales (#4396) (5c318f3), closes #4388
• invalidrole: allow upper and mixed case role names (#4358) (105016c), closes #2695
