evaluate new axe audits for inclusion

See original GitHub issue

When updating axe in #7020, I noticed there were some axe audits that are running but don’t have audits to show them in the report. We should look at them and see if we should be showing them in the report or if we should disable them to save gathering time. We should also see if there are any other tests we should add from the more comprehensive axe of today.

The current list of running tests with no LH audits:

aria-dpub-role-fallback: Ensures unsupported DPUB roles are only used on elements with implicit fallback roles.
aria-hidden-body: Ensures aria-hidden=‘true’ is not present on the document body.
duplicate-id-active: Ensures every id attribute value of active elements is unique.
duplicate-id-aria: Ensures every id attribute value used in ARIA and in labels is unique.
html-xml-lang-mismatch: Ensure that HTML elements with both valid lang and xml:lang attributes agree on the base language of the page.
aria-hidden-focus: ensures aria-hidden elements do not contain focusable elements.
form-field-multiple-labels: Ensures form field does not have multiple label elements.
aria-input-field-name Ensures every ARIA input field has an accessible name
aria-toggle-field-name Ensures every ARIA toggle field has an accessible name

On the other side of things, we don’t appear to have any audits that don’t have results somewhere in the axe results, so that’s good 😃

Updated April 17: merged in shane’s descriptions. Paul added 6,7 from #8370. Patrick added 8, 9 from #9343 . Cc’ing #6169 because relevant.

@robdodson we do, but the variance in LH perf and runtime is so massive that it rarely yields anything conclusive at the moment.

it can certainly check if there’s something very wrong with enabling them though 😃

just comment “DZL, do a barrel roll!” on a PR and it’ll run it automatically when there are changes

Does Lighthouse run the entire aXe core or just part of it? #7510

the implementation from axe doesn't make a significant test here. it's fairly handwavy in determining pass/fail. td-has-header.
