The accessibility test suite includes 8 comprehensive test cases:
All tests now pass with zero accessibility violations.
Before vs After
Before: The select element for "Who paid?" and other form inputs lacked proper label associations, causing accessibility violations.
After: All form elements have proper labels, semantic structure is improved, and the site fully complies with accessibility standards.
The website now provides an inclusive experience for all users, including those using screen readers and keyboard navigation, while maintaining the same visual design and functionality.
Fixes #11.
