Fix
Ensure that
undefined
role attributes on images do not cause TypeErrors in thereactA11yImgHasAltRule
rule itself.This is achieved by coercing a possibly
undefined
role
attribute value to a string.Fixes #390
Background

value for images which have a caption provided. This is both validReact
, and an allowable value for that attribute (type isstring | undefined
).getStringLiteral

TypeError
console errors.Before
