`<nav>`

← Return to main list

This test case is designed to determine how the <nav> element is announced by various screen readers.

By default, the element being tested does not receive focus, so the only way to test how it is announced is via:

VoiceOver: Announce next item: VO + Right Arrow
NVDA and JAWS: Announce next line: DOWN ARROW

Example

Code

<nav>
  Test content
</nav>
