Form Names - accessible name via aria-describedby attribute

Test Case Summary

Test Case ID

TC10.1-all-pass-6

Test Case Description

Detect attributes that would contribute to the accessible name and accessible description computation and calculate the text alternative for the input element. The code sample data presents an aria-describedby attribute that contributes to the accessible name output. A successful test should identify a passing implementation against Baseline Test 10.1 FormName.

Test Case Instruction

Test Instruction Instruction Detail Expected Test Case Result
IC-1 Find all form components. Examples include buttons, text fields, radio buttons, checkboxes, read-only fields, and multi-select lists. One <input> element exists in the test data code sample.
IC-2 Find all instructions and cues (textual and graphical) that are related to form components, including groupings, order of completion, special conditions or qualifiers, format instructions, etc. The <input> control has a visual prompt before the control.
10.1-1 Check that the combination of the accessible name and accessible description is not empty. [SC 4.1.2] The output for the accessible name and accessible descriptions computations is populated via the aria-describedby attribute.
10.1-2 Check that the non-empty combination of the accessible name and accessible description and other programmatic associations (e.g., table column and/or row associations) describes each form component and includes all relevant instructions and cues (textual and graphical). [SC 1.3.1] The accessible name “Official Name” describes the field with all relevant instructions.
Result If any of the above checks fail, then Baseline Test 10.1-FormName fails. Pass - all checks pass.
