Form Names - hidden input element (visibility:hidden)

Test Case Summary

Test Case ID

TC10.1-ic-dna-1

Test Case Description

The purpose of this test case is to detect attributes that would contribute to the accessible name and accessible description computation and calculate the text alternative for input elements. The input element in the code sample does not present itself via the Accessibility tree/Accessibility object model (AOM), visually, or programmatically and consequently cannot be identified by the tester within the current test process. Consequently, a successful test should indicate that this test does not apply to Baseline Test 10.1 FormName.

Applicable ICT Baseline Test

10.1 Test Procedure for Form Names

Baseline Test ID: 10.1-FormName

Test Instruction: Identify Content

Test Case Detail

Expected Baseline Result

DNA

The input element in the code sample is hidden from visibility and from the accessibility tree; therefore there are no elements on the page that fit the Identify Content criteria.

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.	The single input element in this test case is enclosed in a `<div>` element with the `visibility:hidden` style property, which removes it from the accessibility tree, visible, and programmatic detection. Even though the code exists in the DOM, this property renders the element undetectable and therefore not applicable to this Baseline Test based on the results of test step 1.
Result	If any of the above checks fail, then Baseline Test 10.1-FormName fails.	DNA - Test 10.1-FormName does not apply because there are no elements on the page (in the accessibility tree) that fit the Identify Content criteria.
