axe DevTools Linter Accessibility

[Arjunanpalanichamy]

I have created a axe-linter.yml file following code

rules:

heading-order: true # Disable this rule

html-has-lang: false # this rule is disabled for all files

button-has-role: false # this rule is disabled for all files

img-has-alt: true # this rule is disabled for all files

image-alt: false

exclude:

• meta-refresh.html
• 'tests/**/*.html' # Skip files
• '*.tmp' # Skip the temp files

Expectation: linter extension will highlight axe rule violations in HTML code

Actual: The linter immediately yields the error Unable to start axe-linter

Motivation: I want the linter to run correctly in order to test my frontend code

But not reading this yml in VScode and not execute axe-lint

i have copied this yml file path : C:\Users\username\axe-linter.yml

can help to resolve this issue.

thanks
