Status: RESOLVED FIXED

(Core :: Disability Access APIs, defect)

Description

[alexander :surkov (:asurkov)]

We need mochitest for the following case. When aria-describedby is changed on DOM focus then accessible description should be up to dated when a11y focus is fired.

A few nits:
>+  this.getID = function synthFocus_getID() { return aNodeOrID + " click"; }

As per our chat on IRC, we should add a call to getPrettyName so that when someone send a DOM node in instead of an ID, we still output a message that makes sense.

>+      // The aria-describedby is chnaged on DOM focus. Accessible description

"... is changed ..." (typo).

>+      // should be up to dated when a11y focus is fired.

"... should be updated..."

>+  <input id="textbox">

Please end this with />. I hate these old-style tags that are opened but never closed. :)

It's HTML and it doesn't like to close single tags iirc. We use this everywhere in tests.
