- Install Selenium and dependencies - note: when installing chromdriver, you'll need to install the latest version
- Install axe-cli.
- Start chromedriver:
chromedriver --port=4444. - Add axe-equalify wherever you want to run the web service.
- Run
[yourdomain]/?url=[yoururl], replacing[yourdomain]and[yoururl]. You should see an output of axe.
- axe-core kept saying that I had the wrong version of chromedriver installed. I had the correct version. I had to add the flag
--chromedriver-path /usr/local/bin/chromedriverto the axe-core call. - axe-core had an error related to the chromedriver sanbox settings. I had to add
--chrome-options="no-sandboxto the axe-core call.
