Potential A11y Violation:
Missing input element required attribute ​

Point of Failure ​

Required input fields should use the HTML required attribute correctly. This attribute is used to indicate that a field must be filled out before submitting a form.

Available Automation Evaluation ​

In checking known available linting and testing tools, these are our findings.

Linting Could Exist ​

It's possible that a linting rule could be created for this potential failure.

Testing Could Exist ​

It's possible that a check could be created for this potential failure. Check for presence of common required indicators and make sure the required attribute also exists.

Other Test Methods ​

In addition to automated tests, there are other types of tests that could be conducted to prevent this potential violation.

Developer Authored Test Could Exist ​

Developers should make sure that their code does not violate this rule, and try to write a test that would prevent a regression in accessibility if the code is later changed.

Manual Test Must Exist ​

Review input fields for common required indicators. Inspect the DOM to ensure that the required attribute is present on those fields.
