build: speed up docs deployment by not running a11y audit tests (#24576)

devversion · web-flow · commit 5f864f164abe · 2022-03-14T16:40:55.000-07:00
We can speed up the docs deployment &amp; monitor jobs by not running the
rather slower a11y audit tests. These should just be run in the docs
repo. The standard audit lighthouse tests should be a sufficient
indicator of whether the page is up-and-running properly.

Ideally in the future we would have proper e2e tests for the docs
site, but even those will never guarantee a 100%-working page.
