[Enterprise Search] Set up cypress-axe tests (#108465) (#109920)
* Set up cypress-axe

@see https://github.com/component-driven/cypress-axe

* DRY out Kibana axe rules into constants that Cypress can use

* Create shared & configured checkA11y command

+ fix string union type error
+ remove unnecessary tsconfig exclude

* Add Overview plugin a11y tests

* Add AS & WS placeholder a11y checks

- Mostly just re-exporting the shared command and checking for failures, I only ran this after the shared axe config settings and found no failures

* Configure our axe settings further to catch best practices

- notably heading level issues (thanks Byron for catching this!)

- however I now also need to set an ignore on a duplicate landmark violation caused by the global header (not sure why it's showing up - shouldn't it be out of context? bah)

- remove option to pass args into checkA11y - I figure it's not super likely we'll need to override axe settings per-page (vs not running it), but we can pass it custom configs or args later if needed

Kibana

Kibana is your window into the Elastic Stack. Specifically, it's a browser-based analytics and search dashboard for Elasticsearch.

Getting Started

If you just want to try Kibana out, check out the Elastic Stack Getting Started Page to give it a whirl.

If you're interested in diving a bit deeper and getting a taste of Kibana's capabilities, head over to the Kibana Getting Started Page.

Using a Kibana Release

If you want to use a Kibana release in production, give it a test run, or just play around:

Building and Running Kibana, and/or Contributing Code

You might want to build Kibana locally to contribute some code, test out the latest features, or try out an open PR:

Documentation

Visit Elastic.co for the full Kibana documentation.

For information about building the documentation, see the README in elastic/docs.

Version Compatibility with Elasticsearch

Ideally, you should be running Elasticsearch and Kibana with matching version numbers. If your Elasticsearch has an older version number or a newer major number than Kibana, then Kibana will fail to run. If Elasticsearch has a newer minor or patch number than Kibana, then the Kibana Server will log a warning.

Note: The version numbers below are only examples, meant to illustrate the relationships between different types of version numbers.

Situation Example Kibana version Example ES version Outcome
Versions are the same. 5.1.2 5.1.2 💚 OK
ES patch number is newer. 5.1.2 5.1.5 ⚠️ Logged warning
ES minor number is newer. 5.1.2 5.5.0 ⚠️ Logged warning
ES major number is newer. 5.1.2 6.0.0 🚫 Fatal error
ES patch number is older. 5.1.2 5.1.0 ⚠️ Logged warning
ES minor number is older. 5.1.2 5.0.0 🚫 Fatal error
ES major number is older. 5.1.2 4.0.0 🚫 Fatal error
