Mouse Hover & Tooltips
Why this is tricky
The tooltip content doesn't exist in the accessibility tree โ or the DOM at all โ until triggered. It's revealed by hover for a mouse user, but also by keyboard focus, since hover alone can never gate functionality here.
Test result: Flaky (3 reruns)
Failed twice with a stale-element error before passing on the 3rd run.
