Business description

Criterion

Test

1.4.7

Description

For each vector image (svg tag), used as a CAPTCHA or test image, with a text alternative, is this alternative correctly rendered by assistive technologies?

Level

A

Technical description

Scope

Page

Decision level

Semi-Decidable

Algorithm

Selection

Set1

All the <svg> tags of the page not within a link with a not empty "aria-label" attribute or a not empty <desc> child tag (css selector : svg[aria-label]:not([aria-label~=^\s*$]:not(a svg), svg:not(a svg):has(desc:not(:matchesOwn(^\s*$)))

Set2

All the elements of Set1 identified as a CAPTCHA (see Notes for details about CAPTCHA characterisation).

Process

Test1

For each element of Set2, raise a MessageA

MessageA : Check captcha alternative restitution by assistive technologies
  • code : CheckAtRestitutionOfAlternativeOfCaptcha
  • status: Pre-Qualified
  • parameter : "title" attribute, "aria-label" attribute, tag name, snippet
  • present in source : yes

Analysis

Not Applicable

The page has no <svg> tag with an "aria-label" attribute or a <desc> child tag identified as a captcha (Set2 is empty)

Pre-qualified

In all other cases

Notes

Captcha detection

An element is identified as a CAPTCHA when the “captcha” occurrence is found :

  • on one attribute of the element
  • or within the text of the element
  • or on one attribute of one parent of the element
  • or within the text of one parent of the element
  • or on one attribute of a sibling of the element
  • or within the text of a sibling of the element
