3:1 contrast ratio for 14 point, bold font

Test Case Summary

Test Case ID

TC8.1-3-pass-2

Test Case Description

Determine size and weight of the text. Determine whether contrast ratio between foreground text and background is sufficient. The text in the code sample provides sufficient contrast (at least 3:1 for 14 point, bolded text) between the foreground and background.

Applicable ICT Baseline Test

8.1 Test Procedure for Contrast Minimum

Baseline Test ID: 8.1-ContrastMinimum

Test Instruction: 3

Test Case Detail

Expected Baseline Result

Pass

Test Case Instruction

Test Instruction	Instruction Detail	Expected Test Case Result
IC	All visible text AND images of text (except those noted in Limitations, Assumptions, or Exceptions above)	The sample code contains text that is bold and at least 14 pt font (19px)
8.1-1	Determine the contrast ratio of foreground text and background.	Contrast ratio is 4:1
8.1-2	Check that the contrast ratio is at least 4.5:1. [SC 1.4.3]	Fail - the contrast ratio is less than 4.5:1
8.1-3	If the contrast ratio is less than 4.5:1, check that the ratio is at least 3:1 AND the font meets one of the following criteria: [SC 1.4.3]: At least 18 point (23.94 pixels); At least 14 point (18.62 pixels) AND bold (at least 700 font weight) [SC 1.4.3]	Pass - the conrast ratio is greater than 3:1, and the text is at least 14 point AND bold
Results	If both of the above checks fail, then Baseline Test 8.1-ContrastMinimum fails.	Pass - the text in the sample code passes one of the checks in Baseline 8.1-ContrastMinimum
