/**
* Accessibility scan — NFR6 (WCAG 2.1 AA via axe-core).
*
* Walks every meaningful page in the school_admin / teacher / student
* portals, runs the axe-core accessibility engine against the rendered
* DOM, and asserts that there are no violations of "critical" or "serious"
* severity against the WCAG 2.1 AA tag set.
*
* Lower-severity issues ("moderate", "minor") are collected and
* logged but do not fail the test — those go in a follow-up sweep
* so we can ship the critical fixes first.
*
* Per-portal-role scans are added as the page inventory grows.
*
* NFR6 follow-up (2026-07-29): the student dashboard at
* `/dashboard/student` has a dedicated test block below that asserts
* (a) no critical/serious axe violations, (b) the expected semantic
* landmarks and heading hierarchy, (c) keyboard focus order.

* NFR6 — Student dashboard semantic assertions.

* This is a tighter contract than the broad sweep above: it specifically

* fixes that make screen-reader navigation work end to end.
*
* - The first heading is an <h1> and matches the page title.
* - Charts expose a screen-reader-only <table> alternative.
* - Every interactive tile is a real <a> / <button>, not a clickable div.
* - Tabbing from the top lands on the skip link first, then sidebar nav,
* then main content (in visual reading order).
*
* Color-contrast is NOT blocked here — the sidebar theme refresh is the
* bigger fix tracked elsewhere. This block hard-fails on critical AND
* serious axe violations specific to the dashboard route.
