The product was tested for:

• Column and Row headers on data tables.
• No information is solely conveyed through the style sheet.
• Tables (Grids and Group Boxes) used for layout purposes.

The product was tested to ensure that the sequence in which content is presented is in a logical tab order. The customer implementing the Interaction Hub will determine the sequence in which content is read in most cases.

Exceptions to the above are as follows:

• During testing a small number of logical tab order issues were discovered in the application on the Survey and Poll Functionalities. Bug Numbers 21634358,21639763 and 21569049.

The product was tested for:

• Dismissable -The content can be dismissed without moving the pointer or keyboard focus.
• Hoverable - When pointer hover triggers additional content, the pointer can be moved over the additional content without the additional content disappearing.
• Persistent - The additional content remains visible until the hover or focus trigger is removed, the user dismisses it, or its information is no longer valid.

The product does not disrupt the features related to accessibility on the end users platform.   Hotkeys/keyboard shortcuts are available for certain functions of the product.

The product was tested for:

• Consistent use of keyboard keys to perform selection and action.

The product was tested for:

• Movement of focus through each control can be done using only the keyboard, with no "keyboard trap" that prevents focus from moving away from any control.

The product was tested for:

• There are no single character keyboard shortcuts.

The product was tested for:

• Inactivity timeout options to continue or exit.
• Inactivity timeout length is configurable by the Administrator.

The product does not contain animation and does not utilize auto-updating that starts automatically or auto-updating that is presented in parallel with other content.

Customers have the option of implementing things like carousels, where different links, typically displayed with images rotate automatically.  In these cases PeopleTools supports the ability to make these carousels conform to standards. 

The product was tested for:

• No portion of the screen flickers or flashes with a frequency between 2 Hz and 55 Hz

The product provides HTML headers which enable the user to bypass blocks of content.   Headers are provided for Page Titles.

The product has meaningful page titles specified in the TITLE element.

The product  was tested for:

• Logical tab order through the product controls and selectable elements.
• Consistent use of keyboard keys to perform selection and action.

Note:  Hub designs typically are composed of numerous pagelets and navigational elements.  These are created by the customer, who is responsible for determining the focus order.  There is seldom a prescribed sequence to the elements on the Hub home pages, and users can navigate around in any order.

Exceptions to the above are as follows:

• During testing a small number of logical tab order issues were discovered in the application on the Survey and Poll Functionalities. Bug Numbers 21634358, 21639763 and 21569049.

The product was tested to ensure that the purpose of each link can be understood, its label is meaningful,  and that labels are not vaguely worded.

The product provides multiple methods to navigate to a page including:

• Drop down menu.
• Navigation menu ("NavBar").
• Related Actions.
• Links on a page.
• Tiles (buttons) on a homepage.
• Button bars (radio buttons).
• Global search feature to find a page.

The product was tested to insure that structure and hierarchy conveys meaningful text in header elements on pages.

The product was tested for:

• Visual cues or feedback to the position of the cursor within the product.
• AT product successfully tracks cursor focus

The product was tested for:

• There are no multipoint or path-based gesture actions.

Product was tested for:

• When an operation uses a single pointer, the down-event of the pointer is not used to execute any part of the function
• When an operation uses a single pointer, completion of the function is on the up-event, and a mechanism is available to abort the function before completion or undo the function after completion.
• When an operation uses a single pointer, the up-event reverses any outcome of the preceding down-event.

The product has not yet been evaluated for this criteria.

The product was tested for:

• There are no functions that require motion of the device.

The product was tested to ensure the language of the page can be determined.

The product was tested to ensure the language of the page can be determined.

When an element receives focus, it does not result in a substantial change to the page, an additional change of keyboard focus, or the spawning of a pop-up window.

Changes in the value of user interface components does not result in a substantial change to the page, an additional change of keyboard focus, or the spawning of a pop-up window.

The product was tested for consistent navigation and order across pages.

Note:  In most Hub designs the customer determines the navigation order among pagelets and other features of home pages.

The product has been tested to ensure a consistent User Interface.

Note:

• Customers are responsible for consistency among pages in their designs.  We provide the ability to conform to this standard.
• UI for Classic versus Fluid transactions is different since Fluid transactions are a replacement for the legacy Classic transactions.

When input errors are detected, they are described to the user in text, including the identification of the item where the error occurred.

The product was tested for meaningful labels, instructions where applicable, and ALT text.

The product provides messages for input when input errors are automatically detected.   The error messages contain information indicating what the error is and instructions on how to correct the error when known.

• Data that is entered by the user is validated for input errors and the user is provided an opportunity to correct the errors before submission.
• Confirmation pages are available for reviewing, confirming, and correcting input before finalizing the submission of data.
• Submissions are reversible or can be re-entered by the user.

Note: Transactions of this sort are typically conducted within other applications, though those applications may be exposed through the Hub.  The applications pages are responsible for conforming to this requirement.

• Duplicate IDs in the HTML.
• Elements in the HTML have complete start and end tags, are properly nested, do not contain duplicate attributes, and have unique IDs.
• Pages validate to the HTML specification.

• Duplicate IDs exist where application tabs are present as well as an application toolbar.  Although these duplicates exist, they do not disrupt the usage of an AT within the application.  Bug number 19180549.

• HTML controls have a programmatically associated name, derived from the appropriate HTML elements and attributes including LABEL, TITLE, SUMMARY, CAPTION, etc.
• Additional state information is programmatically exposed for HTML controls, such as whether a field is ‘required’.
• Custom controls have appropriate roles specified using the ROLE attribute.
• Custom controls have appropriate state and property information conveyed using the relevant WAI-ARIA or HTML5 attributes.
• Frames have a meaningful title specified in the TITLE attribute.
