Where reproducible?
Stage, prod
Steps to reproduce
Setup
- Install an accessibility-focused browser plugin such as axe DevTools (seems the corporate standard) or WAVE
- Visit
console.redhat.com landing page
- Activate the extension and scan the page for issues
Expected result
No critical issues found
Actual result
16 critical issues found, each an instance of Images must have alternative text
Further details
The img elements that form the radius corners of each widget tile just need to have an empty alt attribute added, so that screen readers will skip over them rather than reading the full URL of the image each time.
I originally reported this problem in Jira issue RHCLOUD-45017. This GitHub issue serves to capture the problem and its resolution in the version of Widget Layout that goes upstream to PatternFly.
