Checkbox test plan changes
- Need Dean and Joe to re-run VoiceOver tests 1 and 3 due to correction of VoiceOver vo-left/right commands.
- In December, the 'j and shift+j commands were not getting rendered for tests 1 through 4. That was an app issue, not a test plan issue. It has been resolved.
Running quantity spin button plan
- Current version: Quantity Spin Button Example Test Plan V25.12.16
- VO results: Waiting on Dean and Murray.
- JAWS and NVDA: Bot is failing; working on resolution path.
Update on test plan for switch using checkbox
- Was previously blocked by app issues related to resolution of conflicting results.
- App Issues are now resolved.
- All testing is complete.
- Before advancing to candidate, need to resolve one issue
- Test Plan Feedback: Remove Enter from VO commands for "Operate a switch", tests 7 and 8 in "Switch Example Using HTML Checkbox Input V25.10.06" · Issue #1361 · w3c/aria-at
Auto-update report reviews
- No action needed this week; Matt reviewing and finalizing reports.
- Joe has validated 10 of 13 JAWS runs
Request for change to alert test plan
Grid plan assertion priority questions
Note: May need to save for later (PR previews are not working)
- PR 1353: Refactor Test Plan for the Minimal Data Grid Example v2 by IsaDC
- When arrowing backward into a grid, ...
- Should we assertname/role or just boundary?
- What would priority be?
- What about row and column number?
