Axe unable to proceed for elements located in frame

[sswapnika]

Product: <<axe-core | axe Extension | axe Linter>>

Expectation: Axe should work for elements that are in frame

Actual: Either element not found exception is thrown or stale element exception

Additional information: Browser: Chrome Axe Version: 4.2.2 Platform: Windows

Following is the code which I have used

AxeBuilder builder = new AxeBuilder(); System.out.println("Entered Accessibility"); Results results = builder.setTimeout(200).analyze(driver()); List violations = results.getViolations(); if (violations.size() == 0) { Assert.assertTrue(true, "No violations found"); } else { File accessibilityReportPath = new File( System.getProperty("user.dir") + "\target\accessibility-reports\"); accessibilityReportPath.mkdir(); AxeReporter.writeResultsToJsonFile(accessibilityReportPath + File.separator + scenario.getName(), results); if (AxeReporter.getReadableAxeResults(ResultType.Violations.getKey(), driver(), violations)) {

Following is the exception thrown

Thanks for the issue. I'm curious if the latest version would fix the issue for you. We've done a lot of work in 4.3 to make iframe testing more robust.

Hi, We observed the same issue with 4.3.1. I observed it failed to find a button within a Frame and also to select an option from dropdown list within a frame

[straker]

Thanks for checking that for us. I'll pass this along to our java developer and he'll take a look at it.

Hi @sswapnika. I'm not familiar with Pega, but the exception seems to imply that the failure stems from it. Can you test your site with vanilla Selenium and report any exceptions that occur?
