Summary
Overview
Use a summary component to display a clear summarised output of values to the user after they have completed a section or full questionnaire.
This is to help them check and confirm their answers.
Important information:
If you want to summarise important information before a user begins a task or survey, use a description list.

</div>How to use this component
The summary should provide users with a direct link back to the question(s) they have answered, allowing them to change their answer.
The summary can contain multiple question and answer types, and will adapt its layout depending on the length of the strings.
The component contains a summaries key which can contain multiple summary groups. This allows for multiple summaries to be displayed.
Each group in groups can have an optional groupTitle which provides a heading for the rows and renders a h2.
Accessibility
The summary component is made accessible by using a visually-hidden <span> after each use of the "change" link text that pipes in the question title. For example:
"Change <span class="ons-u-vh">answer for [question title]</span>"
This is automatic and affects all "change" links.
How to check a summary of figures
To help users validate a summary of their numerical answers, check that their answers entered on previous pages are accurate.
If the answers are not accurate, show an error message.
Error messages
Show the error details above the group of rows in the summary and use the correct errors pattern.
