Test Case Instruction
| Test Instruction | Instruction Detail | Expected Test Case Result |
|---|---|---|
| IC-1 | All links including those that are scripted elements and assigned a role of a link. | The sample code includes multiple links on the page. |
| 14.1-1 | Check that the combination of accessible name and accessible description is not empty. [SC 4.1.2] | Pass - each of the links has a non-empty accessible name and description. |
| 14.1-2 | Check that the purpose of each link can be determined from any combination of the link text, accessible name and accessible description, and preceding page context (same paragraph, list, or table cell as the link or in a table header cell that is associated with the table cell that contains the link). [SC 2.4.4] | Fail - a link provides an accessible name and description that does not sufficiently describe the link’s purpose. |
| Result | If any of the above checks fail, then Baseline Test 14.1-Links. | Fail - one of the checks fails. |
