input-button-name

Make sure that input buttons have an accessible name that clearly explains their purpose.

Description

This issue occurs when the relevant text-based attributes are unavailable for an input button which is being used as a control and will make it difficult for screen reader users to understand its actual purpose.

Why is it important?

When an input button lacks an accessible name, users of assistive technologies are unable to determine what it is intended to do.

How to fix?

Ensure an accessible name is provided for each input button using title attribute, non-empty value attribute, aria-label or aria-labelledby attributes.
