Re: Relationship between WCAG and the ARIA in HTMLspecification

The problem I have with this approach is that neither 2.4.3 nor 4.1.2 appear to be violated in the specific case of the website I am testing. However, I have only tested with Chrome and NVDA and it is difficult to justify testing with more combinations.

With regard to keyboard navigation, the focus indicator for the first tab stop encloses both the link and the button. Is that really enough to fail SC 2.4.3? The second tab stop only encloses the button, as expected. In both cases, pressing the Enter key has the expected behaviour.

I was surprised that the button is exposed correctly via Chrome's accessibility tree. My concern is that other browsers might not do the same.
