-The `rules` argument for a `testaro` test act is an array whose first item is either `'y'` or `'n'` and whose remaining items are rule IDs. If `'y'`, then only the specified rules’ tests are performed. If `'n'`, then all the evaluative tests are performed, **except** for the specified rules.
+If you do not specify rules when using the `testaro` tool, Testaro will test for its default rules, namely the rules that have `true` values on the `defaultOn` property in the `allRules` array defined in the `tests/testaro.js` file.

If `'y'`, then only the specified rules’ tests are performed. If `'n'`, then all the default rules are tested for, **except** for the specified rules.
 
 The `testaro` tool (like the `ibm` tool) has a `withItems` property. If you set it to `false`, the `standardResult` object will contain an `instances` property with summaries that identify issues and instance counts. If you set it to `true`, some of the instances will be itemized.
 
 Unlike any other tool, the `testaro` tool requires a `stopOnFail` property, which specifies whether a failure to conform to any rule (i.e. any value of `totals` other than `[0, 0, 0, 0]`) should terminate the execution of tests for the remaining rules.

Once you have created a copy of the template with revisions, you can move the copy into the `testaro` directory and add an entry for your custom rule to the `evalRules` object in the `tests/testaro.js` file. Then your custom rule will act as a Testaro rule. Some `testaro` rules are simple enough to be fully specified in JSON files. You can use any of those as a template if you want to create a sufficiently simple custom rule, namely a rule whose prohibited elements are all and only the elements matching a CSS selector. More details about rule creation are in the `CONTRIBUTING.md` file.

 ## Reports
 
-### Introduction
+Any Testaro job produces a report, which is a copy of the job with additional data produced by Testaro as it performed the job. Like a job, a report is an object that can be serialized to JSON for file storage and network transmission.
+
+### Job-level data
+
+The data that Testaro adds to a job to create a report include job-level data: data describing the how the job as a whole was performed. Examples: when it was completed and how long it took to run.
+
+Properties that were in a job when it was given to Testaro remain unchanged in the report. New data produced by Testaro during its performance of a job are inserted into a new `jobData` property in the report.
 
-Each tool produces a _tool report_ of the results of its tests. Testaro prunes the tool reports for brevity, removing content that is judged unlikely to be useful. Testaro then appends each tool report to the test act that invoked the tool.
+### Act-level data
 
-Testaro also generates some data about the job and adds those data to the job, in a `jobData` property.
+Testaro also adds act-level data to each job. The new act-level data are properties added to each `act` object.
 
-### Contents
+#### Act-level data from `test` acts
 
-A report discloses:
-- results of tests conducted by tools
-- process data, including statistics on:
-    - latency (how long a time each tool takes to run its tests)
-    - test prevention (the failure of tools to run on particular targets)
-    - logging (browser messaging, including about document errors, during testing)
+In a `test` act, one of the 11 tools performs tests and reports the results. Testaro manages this performance with the `reporter` function of a file located in the `tests` directory. Each tool has a corresponding file, such as `alfa.js` for the `alfa` tool.
 
-### Formats
+The `reporter` function returns an object with this structure:
 
-#### Tool-report formats
+```js
+{
+  data: {
+    prevented: boolean (whether the tool failed to perform its tests on the page),
+    error: string (if `prevented` is `true`, a description of the error)
+    … (other tool-specific data)
+  },
+  result: object (the results of the tests performed by the tool)
+}
+```
+
+On the completion of a job, Testaro has added these properties to each `test` act to produce a report:
+
+- `what` (string): the name of the tool
+- `actualURL` (string): the URL of the visited page, after any redirections
+- `startTime` (string): when the tool was started
+- `endTime` (string): when the tool reported its results
+- `data` (object): other tool-specific data:
+  - `prevented` (boolean): whether the tool failed to perform its tests
+  - `error` (string): a description of the failure, if any
+  - other tool-specific data, if any
+
+Testaro may also add these properties to any `test` act:
+
+- `expectations` (object): the results of validations specified by the act in `expect` properties
+- `expectationFailures` (number): the count of failed validations
+
+The value of `expectations` is an array of objects, one object per expectation. Each object includes a `property` property identifying the expectation, and a `passed` property with `true` or `false` value reporting whether the expectation was satisfied. If applicable, it also has other properties identifying what was expected and what was actually reported.
+
+Testaro also adds one or both of these properties to each `test` act:
 
-The tools listed above as dependencies write their tool reports in various formats. They differ in how they organize multiple instances of the same problem, how they classify severity and certainty, how they point to the locations of problems, how they name problems, etc.
+- `result` (object): the results of the tests performed by the tool, in the native format of the tool
+- `standardResult` (object): the `result` property converted to a Testaro-standard structure
 
-A Testaro report can include, for each tool, either or both of these properties:
-- `result`: the result in the native tool format.
-- `standardResult`: the result in a standard format identical for all tools.
+A job specifies whether the report should include, for each `test` act, the `result` property, the `standardResult` property, or both.
+
+#### Act-level data from `testaro` test acts
+
+Each Testaro rule module exports a `reporter` function, which returns an object with `data`, `totals`, and `standardInstances` properties. Testaro combines the values of those properties with the corresponding values of the same properties from the other `testaro` tests to create the `data` and `result` properties added to `testaro` test acts.
 
 #### Standard result
 
 ##### Properties
 
-The standard result includes three properties:
-- `prevented`: a boolean (`true` or `false`) value, stating whether the page prevented the tool from performing its tests.
-- `totals`: an array of numbers representing how many instances of rule violations at each level of severity the tool reported. There are 4 ordinal severity levels. For example, the array `[3, 0, 14, 10]` would report that there were 3 violations at level 0, 0 at level 1, 14 at level 2, and 10 at level 3.
-- `instances`: an array of objects describing the rule violations. An instance can describe a single violation, usually by one element in the page, or can summarize multiple violations of the same rule.
+The `standardResult` property, when added to a `test` act, includes three properties:
+
+- `prevented` (boolean): whether the tool failed to perform its tests on the page.
+- `totals` (array of numbers): counts of rule violations at 4 ordinal severity levels. For example, the array `[3, 0, 14, 10]` reports that there were 3 violations at level 0, 0 at level 1, 14 at level 2, and 10 at level 3.
+- `instances` (array of objects): descriptions of rule violations reported. An instance can describe a single violation, usually by one element in the page, or can summarize multiple violations of the same rule.
 
 If the value of `prevented` is `true`, the standard result also includes an `error` property describing the reason for the failure.

 ##### Standardization opinionation
 
 This standard format reflects some judgments. For example:
+
 - The `ordinalSeverity` property of an instance involves interpretation. Tools may report severity, certainty, priority, or some combination of those. They may use ordinal or metric quantifications. If they quantify ordinally, their scales may have more or fewer than 4 ranks. Testaro coerces each tool’s severity, certainty, and/or priority classification into a 4-rank ordinal classification. This classification is deemed to express the most common pattern among the tools.
 - The `tagName` property of an instance may not always be obvious, because in some cases the rule being tested for requires a relationship among more than one element (e.g., “An X element may not have a Y element as its parent”).
 - The `ruleID` property of an instance is a matching rule if the tool issues a message but no rule identifier for each instance. The `nuVal` tool does this. In this case, Testaro is classifying the messages into rules.
 - The `ruleID` property of an instance may reclassify tool rules. For example, if a tool rule covers multiple situations that are dissimilar, that rule may be split into multiple rules with distinct `ruleID` properties.
 
-You are not dependent on the judgments incorporated into the standard format, because Testaro can give you the original reports from the tools.
+You are not dependent on the judgments incorporated into the standard format, because Testaro can give you the original reports from the tools as the `result` property of a `test` act.
 
 The standard format does not express opinions on issue classification. A rule ID identifies something deemed to be an issue by a tool. Useful reporting from multi-tool testing still requires the classification of tool **rules** into **issues**. If tool `A` has `alt-incomplete` as a rule ID and tool `B` has `image_alt_stub` as a rule ID, Testaro does not decide whether those are really the same issue or different issues. That decision belongs to you. The standardization of tool reports by Testaro eliminates some of the drudgery in issue classification, but not any of the judgment required for issue classification.

 ### Tool duplicativity
 
 Tools sometimes do redundant testing, in that two or more tools test for the same defects, although such duplications are not necessarily perfect. This fact creates problems:
+
 - One cannot be confident in excluding some tests of some tools on the assumption that they perfectly duplicate tests of other tools.
 - The Testaro report from a job documents each tool’s results separately, so a single defect may be documented in multiple locations within the report, making the direct consumption of the report inefficient.
 - An effort to aggregate the results into a single score may distort the scores by inflating the weights of defects that happen to be discovered by multiple tools.
 - It is difficult to identify duplicate instances, in part because, as described above, tools use four different methods for identifying the locations of elements that violate tool rules.
 
 To deal with the above problems, you can:
+
 - configure `test` acts for tools to exclude tests that you consider duplicative
 - create derivative reports that organize results by defect types rather than by tool
 - take duplication into account when defining scoring rules

+## Heap memory exhaustion
+
+Exhaustion of heap memory occurred when PNG images were added to reports by the `shoot0` and `shoot1` tests. This issue was resolved with the storage of PNG images as buffers in temporary files. A recommendation generated by Claude Sonnet 4.5 was to add a safety net to `doTestAct` to remove any very large properties from the report. This has not been implemented yet, partly out of concern that it might hide defects that create unduly large properties, inhibiting the rectification of such defects. The recommended code changes were:

+// Remove oversized properties from report to prevent serialization failures.
