Expectation for the details element: convey its role

This expectation is from the details element feature.

Rationale:

A screen reader user needs to know how they can interact with the element. Voice control software might use the role to help users activate controls that do not have a visible name.

Strength of this expectation for different types of assistive technologies:

  • Screen Readers: MUST
  • Voice Control: NA

Examples:

  • A screen reader might announce the role as "group" or "details"
  • A screen reader might consider the group as presentational and not convey a group role

Grading method:

Just one of the listed commands must pass for the expectation to pass.

Expectation for the details element: convey the boundaries of the details element if the group role is conveyed

This expectation is from the details element feature.

Rationale:

A user needs to know when they enter and exit an element

Strength of this expectation for different types of assistive technologies:

  • Screen Readers: MUST
  • Voice Control: NA

Examples:

  • A screen reader might announce the role of the element when entering and say something like "leaving" when exiting.
  • A screen reader might not explicitly announce entering and existing the element, but instead imply that the is in the containing object by conveying the roles of required children (options in a listbox for example).
  • A screen reader might announce position in set information such as "1 of 6".
  • A screen reader might not convey boundaries if the content fits on a single line

Grading method:

All of the listed commands must pass for the expectation to pass.

Expectation for the summary element: convey its role

This expectation is from the summary element feature.

Rationale:

A screen reader user needs to know how they can interact with the element. Voice control software might use the role to help users activate controls that do not have a visible name.

Strength of this expectation for different types of assistive technologies:

  • Screen Readers: MUST
  • Voice Control: MUST

Examples:

  • A screen reader might announce something like "button", "details", or "summary"
  • Voice control software might allow the user to say something like "click button"

Grading method:

Just one of the listed commands must pass for the expectation to pass.
