Detailed support results by expectation

Expectation for the aria-invalid attribute: convey the "false" value - applied to the input[type="text"] element

This expectation is applied to the input[type="text"] element. Expectations and results might differ when the the feature is applied to different roles.

This expectation is from the aria-invalid attribute feature.

Strength of this expectation for different types of assistive technologies:

  • Screen Readers: MUST
  • Voice Control: NA

Examples:

  • The "false" value indicates that the input does not have an error.
  • Screen readers may imply this by not conveying the presence of the attribute at all. Most screen readers do not explicitly indicate that the input is valid.

Grading method:

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