class Playwright::Page

Many html elements have an implicitly [defined role](https://w3c.github.io/html-aam/#html-element-role-mappings) that is recognized by the role selector. You can find all the [supported roles here](https://www.w3.org/TR/wai-aria-1.2/#role_definitions). ARIA guidelines **do not recommend** duplicating implicit roles and attributes by setting `role` and/or `aria-*` attributes to default values.

Role selector **does not replace** accessibility audits and conformance tests, but rather gives early feedback about the ARIA guidelines.

**Details**

```
page.get_by_role("button", name=re.compile("submit", re.IGNORECASE)).click()

page.get_by_role("checkbox", name="Subscribe").check()

expect(page.get_by_role("heading", name="Sign up")).to_be_visible()
```python sync

You can locate each element by it's implicit role:

```
Submit



Subscribe

Sign up

```html

Consider the following DOM structure.

**Usage**

Allows locating elements by their [ARIA role](https://www.w3.org/TR/wai-aria-1.2/#roles), [ARIA attributes](https://www.w3.org/TR/wai-aria-1.2/#aria-attributes) and [accessible name](https://w3c.github.io/accname/#dfn-accessible-name).
