Add ability to distinguish between property, role, and state metadata #345
Labels
Agenda+Community Group
To discuss in the next workstream summary meeting (usually the last teleconference of the month)
In order to create a more user-friendly test reports page, we want to allow users to filter data by
role
,property
orstate
. (See #317 for a wireframe that includes the proposed filtering.) The idea behind this filtering is it would be a level of detail more useful for web-developers who are deciding to use a particular feature or not.Currently, this data is included in
refs
column of thetest.csv
but it is not included in such a way that it could be clearly differentiated what data is a role, property, or state. (See https://github.com/w3c/aria-at/wiki/How-to-contribute-tests#refs). Currently, these properties are also included in thereference.csv
file but no information is provided about if they are property, a state, or a role, just a link to an explanation of them on the aria practices site. (See https://github.com/w3c/aria-at/wiki/How-to-contribute-tests#refid)Proposed Solutions:
ref
column into 3 separate columns forrole
,property
, andstate
intest.csv
ref
column into 2 separate columns one forrole
and a second just forproperty
andstate
intest.csv
reference.csv
such that for eachrefId
there is a second value column that includestype
info about therefId
as well as the existing entry where thevalue
is a link to the aria guidelinestest.csv
likemetadataKey1
,metaDataValue1
,metaDataKey1
,metaDataValue2
etc. Such that a test contributor could add any set of additional attributes to a test.It might be appropriate to just include this discussion as part of the other discussion currently being scheduled about the details of the test format. (See #337)
