Detailed support results by expectation

Expectation for the input[type="search"] element: convey its name

This expectation is from the input[type="search"] element feature.

Rationale:

A screen reader user needs to know what to enter.

Strength of this expectation for different types of assistive technologies:

Screen Readers: MUST
Voice Control: MUST

Examples:

A screen reader will announce the name (label).
Voice control software will let the user say something like "click <name>" to activate the control.

Grading method:

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

Notes:

For form inputs - commands to read line by line (down and up arrows in most windows screen readers) will not always result in the name being explicitly conveyed when the virtual focus is moved to an input where the label is visually displayed and programmatically associated with the input. This is acceptable because the name is implied by the fact that it should be naturally found in the reading order. Some screen readers choose to not convey the name in these cases, likely in an effort to reduce verbosity.

AT	Browser	Has Support	Output
Dragon Naturally Speaking	Chrome	yes	Result: (pass) Test Case: Use "Click <text>" (Activate item by name) Launch Dragon Naturally Speaking and Chrome. Navigate to the test page. Find the target element(s) that you will test against. Identify all elements that match this selector:`input[type="search"]` If multiple elements match the selector, repeat this test for all instances. However, choose a single instance to report against. If you feel that the selector should be more specific, please open a GitHub Issue.

Expectation for the input[type="search"] element: convey its role

This expectation is from the input[type="search"] 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 be announce the role as "text input", "edit", "edit text", "search", etc.
Voice control software will let the user say something like "click text box" to focus a the input or flag the role with a number.

Grading method:

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

Expectation for the input[type="search"] element: convey changes in value

This expectation is from the input[type="search"] element feature.

Rationale:

The user needs to know that the value was successfully changed.

Strength of this expectation for different types of assistive technologies:

Screen Readers: MUST
Voice Control: NA

Examples:

When the user enter texts, the screen reader will announce it back to them.

Grading method:

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