Official methodology to test criterion 9.9

Test 1 (9.9)

iOS and Android
  1. Activate the screen reader.
  2. Fill in form fields with values that are likely to cause input errors (leaving a field empty, entering a badly formed e-mail address, for example).
  3. Validate the form.
  4. For each field in error, check that
    • the error message is visible near the field;
    • the error message is rendered by the screen reader when focused on the field.
  5. If this is the case, the criterion is validated.
