# :warning: Deprecation Notice :warning:
The switch from Selenium.Axe to Deque.AxeCore is, by design, really straight forward. This is because Deque.AxeCore is a fork of Selenium.Axe so the interfaces to both are very similar.
## Update steps
1. Add Deque and Html packages
- Deque.AxeCore.Commons
- Deque.AxeCore.Selenium
- TWP.Selenium.Axe.Html
_*Only if you are using the current HTML report functionality_
2. Remove Selenium.Axe package
3. Update usings
- Remove
- ```using Selenium.Axe;```
- Add
- ```using Deque.AxeCore.Commons;```
- ```using Deque.AxeCore.Selenium;```
- ```using TWP.Selenium.Axe.Html;```
_*Only when creating HTML reports_
## Context
### Why is this project being deprecated?
- Deque is officially taking on the .Net bindings
- https://github.com/dequelabs/axe-core-nuget
- https://www.nuget.org/packages/Deque.AxeCore.Selenium/
### Is this a good thing?
- Yes
- Selenium.Axe actually uses Deque’s Axe core under the hood
- This should help keep the .Net bindings at feature parity with the other official supported binding, such as Java and JavaScript
### Anything special we should know?
- The new Deque project will support both Selenium and Playwright
- A [standalone HTML reporter](https://github.com/TroyWalshProf/SeleniumAxeHtmlDotnet) library has been created and will be maintained until the [Microsoft HTML reporter](https://github.com/microsoft/html-reporter-for-axe-core-dotnet) gets released.

Automated web accessibility testing with .NET, C#, and Selenium. Wraps the [axe-core](https://github.com/dequelabs/axe-core) accessibility scanning engine and the [Selenium.WebDriver](https://www.seleniumhq.org/) browser automation framework.
Compatible with .NET Standard 2.0+, .NET Framework 4.7.1+, and .NET Core 2.0+.
Inspired by [axe-selenium-java](https://github.com/dequelabs/axe-selenium-java) and [axe-webdriverjs](https://github.com/dequelabs/axe-webdriverjs). Forked from [Globant.Selenium.Axe](https://github.com/javnov/axe-selenium-csharp).
