+#### Custom Result Handler
+
+The `customResultHandler` config property expects a callback like the `axe.run()` callback ([see documentation](https://github.com/dequelabs/axe-core/blob/master/doc/API.md#parameters-axerun)). It will be triggered after each call to `axe.run()`. 
+
+```javascript
+import Vue from 'vue'
+
+if (process.env.NODE_ENV !== 'production') {
+  const VueAxe = require('vue-axe')
+  Vue.use(VueAxe, {
+    customResultHandler: (error, results) => {
+      results.violations.forEach(violation => console.log(violation))
+    }
+    // ...
+  })
+}
+```
