[Bug 2116954] Re: A button lacks the A11Y role
I tested in Noble. Opened a terminal, installed everything, launched
`malcontent-control`, and unlocked it. It showed the main interface. I
enabled the screen reader and navigated using the TAB key. When I
arrived to the `Restrict applications` button, the reader said
"Underline Restrict applications PUSHBUTTON" as expected.
** Description changed:
The "Restrict Applications" button lacks the corresponding role,
so an user using a screen reader won't be able to know that they
can push it to expand the list of applications.
[ Impact ]
An user that depends on the screen reader won't know the associated role
of the button, which can be misleading and make use more difficult.
[ Test plan ]
* In a virtual machine, open a terminal
+ * Install `malcontent` and `malcontent-gui` packages.
* type `export XDG_CURRENT_DESKTOP=GNOME` and `export UNDER_JHBUILD=1` to set debug mode and pure-gnome mode in gnome-initial-setup.
* enable the screen reader (Super+Alt+S)
- * launch `/usr/libexec/gnome-initial-setup`
- * advance until the `About you` page
- * add an user, different of the current one
- * enable the `Parental control` checkbutton
- * go to the next page
- * insert a password
- * go to the next page (parental controls)
+ * launch `malcontent-control`.
+ * unlock it with your SUDO password.
* move the cursor, using the TAB key, to the `Restrict applications` button
* without the patch, it will be read as `Restrict applications. Prevents specified...`, without a role.
Instead, with the patch, it should be read as `Restrict applications Button. Prevents specified...`
[ Where problems could occur ]
Since this patch only adds A11Y info, the only possible problem is that
incorrect accessibility information would be sent to the screen reader.
