Official methodology to test criterion 11.15
Test 1 (11.15)
iOS and Android
- Identify on the screen the identification (authentication) and control functions that are based on the use of biological characteristics (e.g. voice recognition, fingerprint, facial recognition).
- Check that there is an alternative method of performing the action:
- For an authentication feature that uses fingerprint recognition, a button is available on the login screen to access password entry.
- For authentication functionality that involves voice recognition, the application also offers fingerprint recognition.
- If this is the case, the criterion is validated. If the alternative method also relies on a biological characteristic, it is essential that it does not involve a similar biological characteristic. For example, if the initial method involves voice, the alternative method must not use voice.
