User Agent: Mozilla/5.0 (X11; Linux x86_64; rv:71.0) Gecko/20100101 Firefox/71.0

Steps to reproduce:

  1. Press ctrl-i
  2. tab in the Title and Location fields

Actual results:

None of these fields are labelled, so the screen reader cannot say to the blind usr in what field he is.

Expected results:

Lightning should send to at-spi or similar the label "Title" and "Subject". This is a regression,since less than & week

Might be regressed by Bug 1569562.

See also bug 1581482.
Hmm, but the fields are now in a table. Wouldn't the screen reader say what the header of the row is?

Do we need to use label again to resolve this issue? Is there any way that html:th can be detected by the screen reader?

Probably use aria-labelledby="(id of the html:th)"

I checked on screen-reader for accessibility on Mac.

Backport required here? This says "regression", but from bug 1569562 which landed during the 71 cycle. So I assume this is working in TB 70 and TB 68 ESR, right?

Yes, it's for trunk only.

I confirm the bug is fixed completely. Many thanks

Best regards

Just a detail: is there a non-reg test for this?

Regards

I don't think so.

Should not we do one? To avoid future regression? I can run one with dogtail but I gues it would be beter to ship in Marionette?

Regards
