Official methodology to test criterion 8.4
Test 1 (8.4)
iOS and Android
- Identify user interface components (links, buttons) with text embedded in a text environment (in a sentence, for example), identified solely by colour (without any other formatting that distinguishes them from the rest of the text in which they are embedded).
- Connect an external keyboard (and set keyboard navigation parameters).
- Check that the focus visibility as defined at system level is preserved on these elements.
- Connect a mouse.
- Check that hovering over interactive components in a text environment is indicated by means other than colour (bolding, underlining for example).
- If this is the case, the criterion is validated.
