Descriptive Headings - with an extended heading that describes purpose and/or topic of its contents

Test Case Summary

Test Case ID

TC13.1-1-pass-1

Test Case Description

Visually apparent headings, which denote sections of content. Headings are often in a larger, bolded font separated from paragraphs by extra spacing (though not always). Note the hierarchy and structure of each heading with respect to other headings on the page or screen.

The code sample provides an equivalent description of the heading that depicts the meaning of the corresponding paragraph, which would cause Assistive Technologies to provide the correct topic for its content. A successful test should identify a PASS against Baseline 13.1 Descriptive Headings.
