🎯 Functional Correctness | 🟡 Minor | ⚡ Quick win
Strengthen the A11 test to check rendered semantics.
The test reads public/modules/matching.js as text. Line 122 rejects only setAttribute('role', 'option'); it misses markup, double-quoted calls, and element.role = 'option'. Line 126 checks only for the presence of a disabled assignment. It does not verify that a used choice is disabled at runtime. A regression can therefore pass while violating Issue #28.
Use a DOM fixture to inspect #matching-choices, its buttons, their roles, and the disabled state. If this test must remain source-based, broaden the role checks at minimum.
Minimum improvement for source-based checks
- assert.doesNotMatch(src, /role="listbox"/);
- assert.doesNotMatch(src, /setAttribute\(\s*'role',\s*'option'\s*\)/);
+ assert.doesNotMatch(src, /role\s*=\s*["'](?:listbox|option)["']/);

Summary
Matching answer choices are native buttons in a labeled group, not
role="option"nodes inside arole="listbox"(audit A11, WCAG 4.1.2). Used choices stay disabled.Closes #28.
Changes
#matching-choicesisrole="group"with the existingAnswer choicesname. Choice nodes stay<button>and keep their click handler anddisabledused state. That matches how they already work from the keyboard (Tab and Enter/Space), without implying listbox arrow /aria-activedescendantbehavior.The Wave 0 characterization test now asserts that contract. Axe did not flag the mixed roles, so the baseline is unchanged.
Also records A9 as closed (PR #38) on the issue map.
