Re: Testable statements assignments

Hi Bryan, 

I am not sure where you are looking in the wiki table. I was trying to avoid your having to do aria-activedescendant. I think it depends on what you are wanted to test. If you want to test the state change events then yeah, you will want to apply an aria-activedescendan on the listbox and also you would need to make the descendants focusable (tabindex=“-1”). You will need code to change the selected states too. Then the expected results should have the selected state exposed appropriately, and also an event to be generated for that state change. 

Best,
Rich
