ARIA
aria-required-attr
WCAG 4.1.2 Name, Role, Value Level A
Who this affects
This role needs attributes that are missing, so its state is not announced.
How to fix it
Add the required attributes for the role, such as aria-checked on a checkbox role.
How much work is it?
Usually a developer work. That is a rough guide for planning, not an estimate for your codebase. A single content edit repeated across a template is a template change.
What a person still has to check
Passing this rule does not mean 4.1.2 passes. Automation checks part of the criterion, and the rest is a judgement:
Use a screen reader on each custom control and confirm its name, role, and state are announced.
Read 4.1.2 Name, Role, Value in plain language
Where this check comes from
This is an axe-core rule. We run axe in a real browser on every page we scan. Deque’s reference for aria-required-attr
Find out whether your site does this
A scan checks this rule on every page it visits, and shows you the code and a screenshot of each place it fires.
