Subject: [PATCH 01/41] feat(a11y): add SkipLink and StatusAnnouncer
 accessibility components

- SkipLink: WCAG 2.4.1 Bypass Blocks - skip-to-content navigation for keyboard users
- StatusAnnouncer: WCAG 4.1.2 Name, Role, Value - ARIA live region for screen readers
- Fixed tabindex handling: temporary tabindex on focus, removed on blur
- Uses current @apache-superset/core/ui import structure

Subject: [PATCH 02/41] fix(a11y): add semantic h2 heading to chart titles
 (WCAG 1.3.1)

Wraps chart titles in semantic <h2> elements for screen reader accessibility.
The heading inherits all visual styles from the parent container so the
visual appearance remains unchanged.

Subject: [PATCH 05/41] fix(a11y): add aria-labels to icon buttons and hide
 decorative icons (WCAG 1.1.1)

- Add aria-label to FullscreenExitOutlined button in SliceHeaderControls
- Add aria-label to Undo/Redo buttons in Dashboard Header (matching tooltip text)
- Mark decorative icons as aria-hidden in SliceHeaderControls download menu
- Mark decorative icons as aria-hidden in Header (Undo, Redo, Save icons)
- Update BaseIconComponent to respect aria-hidden prop (role=presentation, no aria-label)
- Mark decorative icons in Explore header, SQL Lab buttons (Save, Share, Download, Copy)

Subject: [PATCH 07/41] fix(a11y): add non-color visual cues to status
 indicators and error messages (WCAG 1.4.1)

- Replace generic icons in AlertStatusIcon with distinct shapes per status:
  Success=CheckCircleOutlined, Error=CloseCircleOutlined, Working=LoadingOutlined,
  Noop=ClockCircleOutlined, Grace=ExclamationCircleOutlined
- Add "Error:" text prefix to ChartErrorMessage and ImportModal ErrorAlert
- Add aria-label with scheme name and role="option" to ColorSchemeLabel swatches
- Mark individual color swatches as aria-hidden for cleaner screen reader output
- Add tests verifying distinct icon rendering per status, icon presence in ErrorAlert,
  and aria-label on ColorSchemeLabel

Subject: [PATCH 08/41] fix(a11y): add role=alert to error containers with
 tests (WCAG 3.3.1)

- Add aria-atomic="true" to base Alert component for complete message announcement
- Add aria-atomic="true" to BasicErrorAlert custom div container
- Add WCAG 3.3.1 accessibility tests to Alert, BasicErrorAlert, and ErrorAlert
- Verify role="alert", aria-atomic, aria-live attributes across error components
- Test assertive aria-live for errors, polite for warnings/info/success

- Replace CanvasRenderer with SVGRenderer in Echart.tsx for all 13+ chart types
- All chart text (labels, axes, legends) now renders as SVG DOM elements, not canvas bitmaps
- Text is selectable, scalable, and accessible to assistive technology
- Add role="img", aria-label, and <title> to chart-card-fallback.svg
- Tooltips remain unaffected (already HTML DOM elements via appendToBody)

+
+## Bekannte Browser-Unterschiede
+
+### Safari-spezifische Einschraenkungen
+
+| Problem | Beschreibung | Workaround |
+|---------|-------------|------------|
+| Tab-Navigation | Safari fokussiert standardmaessig keine Links per Tab-Taste | Benutzer muss "Alle Steuerungen per Tab ansteuern" in Safari Einstellungen > Erweitert aktivieren |
+| VoiceOver + ARIA | VoiceOver ignoriert teilweise `aria-describedby` bei bestimmten Rollen | Sicherstellen, dass `aria-label` zusaetzlich gesetzt ist |
+| Custom Selects | Safari rendert `<select>` mit nativen Stilen, Custom-Dropdowns koennen abweichen | Ant Design Dropdown-Komponenten verwenden statt native Selects |
+
+### Firefox-spezifische Hinweise
+
+| Problem | Beschreibung | Workaround |
+|---------|-------------|------------|
+| Focus-Outline | Firefox verwendet eigene Focus-Styles, die von CSS-Resets betroffen sein koennen | `:focus-visible` explizit stylen, `::-moz-focus-inner` zuruecksetzen |
+| NVDA + aria-live | NVDA in Firefox kann doppelte Ansagen bei `aria-live="assertive"` erzeugen | `aria-live="polite"` bevorzugen, nur bei kritischen Fehlern `assertive` |
+
+### Chrome/Edge-spezifische Hinweise
+
+| Problem | Beschreibung | Workaround |
+|---------|-------------|------------|
+| Forced Colors Mode | Windows High Contrast Mode kann Custom-Focus-Styles ueberschreiben | `@media (forced-colors: active)` CSS-Query verwenden |
+| NVDA Compatibility | NVDA funktioniert am zuverlaessigsten mit Chrome und Edge (gleiche Chromium-Engine) | Chrome oder Edge als primaeren NVDA-Testbrowser verwenden |
+
+### Cross-Browser CSS Hinweise
+
+| Eigenschaft | Chrome/Edge | Firefox | Safari |
+|-------------|-------------|---------|--------|
+| `:focus-visible` | Vollstaendig unterstuetzt | Vollstaendig unterstuetzt | Ab Safari 15.4 unterstuetzt |
+| `outline-offset` | Unterstuetzt | Unterstuetzt | Unterstuetzt |
+| `forced-colors` Media Query | Unterstuetzt | Ab Firefox 89 | Nicht unterstuetzt |
+| `prefers-reduced-motion` | Unterstuetzt | Unterstuetzt | Unterstuetzt |
+| `prefers-contrast` | Unterstuetzt | Ab Firefox 96 | Ab Safari 14.1 |

+
+## Level A Kriterien
+
+### 1. WCAG 1.1.1 -- Nicht-Text-Inhalt
+
+**Ziel:** Alle nicht-textuellen Inhalte (Icons, Charts, Bilder) haben eine Textalternative, die dem Screenreader zugaenglich ist.
+
+**Testschritte:**
+
+1. Dashboard oeffnen, mit Tab zu den Chart-Containern navigieren.
+   - **ERWARTUNG:** Screenreader sagt den Chart-Namen und den Chart-Typ (z.B. "Umsatz Q1 -- Balkendiagramm").
+2. Toolbar-Icons in der oberen Navigation aktivieren (z.B. Bearbeiten, Aktualisieren, Speichern).
+   - **ERWARTUNG:** Jeder Button wird mit seinem Zweck vorgelesen (z.B. "Bearbeiten", "Dashboard aktualisieren", "Speichern").
+3. Alert-Liste oeffnen und zu den Status-Icons navigieren.
+   - **ERWARTUNG:** Neben dem Icon wird der Status-Text vorgelesen (z.B. "Erfolgreich", "Fehlgeschlagen", "Geplant").
+4. Chart-Liste oeffnen, Favoriten-Sterne pruefen.
+   - **ERWARTUNG:** Screenreader liest "Favorit" oder "Kein Favorit" vor, nicht nur ein leeres Icon.
+
+**Relevante Seiten:** Dashboard-Ansicht, Chart-Liste, Alert-Liste, Toolbar
+
+**Ergebnis:** | NVDA Chrome: ☐ Pass ☐ Fail | NVDA Firefox: ☐ Pass ☐ Fail | VoiceOver Safari: ☐ Pass ☐ Fail |
+
+**Kommentar:** ___________
+
+---
+
+### 2. WCAG 1.3.3 -- Sensorische Eigenschaften
+
+**Ziel:** Anweisungen und Informationen sind nicht ausschliesslich ueber Form, Groesse, visuelle Position oder Orientierung vermittelt.
+
+**Testschritte:**
+
+1. Filter Bar oeffnen und die Expand/Collapse-Buttons testen.
+   - **ERWARTUNG:** Screenreader sagt `aria-expanded="true"` oder `aria-expanded="false"` -- der Zustand ist programmatisch erkennbar, nicht nur visuell.
+2. Toggle-Buttons (z.B. in Dashboard-Einstellungen) aktivieren und deaktivieren.
+   - **ERWARTUNG:** Screenreader liest `aria-pressed="true"` bzw. `aria-pressed="false"` vor.
+3. Tab-Navigation in SQL Lab pruefen (Ergebnisse, Abfrageverlauf).
+   - **ERWARTUNG:** Aktiver Tab wird als "ausgewaehlt" vorgelesen, inaktive Tabs als "nicht ausgewaehlt" -- nicht nur durch Farbe erkennbar.
+
+**Relevante Seiten:** Filter Bar, Dashboard-Einstellungen, SQL Lab
+
+**Ergebnis:** | NVDA Chrome: ☐ Pass ☐ Fail | NVDA Firefox: ☐ Pass ☐ Fail | VoiceOver Safari: ☐ Pass ☐ Fail |
+
+**Kommentar:** ___________
+
+---
+
+### 3. WCAG 1.4.1 -- Benutzung von Farbe
+
+**Ziel:** Farbe wird nicht als einziges visuelles Mittel zur Informationsvermittlung verwendet.
+
+**Testschritte:**
+
+1. Alert-Liste oeffnen und Status-Spalte pruefen.
+   - **ERWARTUNG:** Neben der Farbe wird ein eindeutiges Icon mit unterschiedlicher Form und ein Textlabel fuer jeden Status angezeigt (Kreis = Erfolgreich, Dreieck = Warnung, Quadrat = Fehler).
+2. Dashboard-Charts mit Farbkodierung pruefen (z.B. Pie-Chart-Segmente).
+   - **ERWARTUNG:** Segmente haben Textlabels oder Pattern/Muster zusaetzlich zur Farbe.
+3. Formular-Validierung pruefen (z.B. Datenbank-Verbindung anlegen mit fehlerhaften Daten).
+   - **ERWARTUNG:** Fehlerhafte Felder haben nicht nur eine rote Umrandung, sondern auch einen Fehlertext und ein Fehler-Icon.
+
+**Relevante Seiten:** Alert-Liste, Dashboard-Charts, Database-Modal, Formular-Seiten
+
+**Ergebnis:** | NVDA Chrome: ☐ Pass ☐ Fail | NVDA Firefox: ☐ Pass ☐ Fail | VoiceOver Safari: ☐ Pass ☐ Fail |
+
+**Kommentar:** ___________
+
+---
+
+### 4. WCAG 3.3.1 -- Fehlerkennzeichnung
+
+**Ziel:** Bei Eingabefehlern wird der Fehler automatisch erkannt und dem Benutzer in Textform beschrieben.
+
+**Testschritte:**
+
+1. Login-Seite: Falsches Passwort eingeben und Formular absenden.
+   - **ERWARTUNG:** Screenreader liest eine Fehlermeldung vor (z.B. "Benutzername oder Passwort falsch"). Die Meldung hat `role="alert"` und wird sofort angekuendigt.

Subject: [PATCH 23/41] test(a11y): add axe-core accessibility tests for all
 main pages (QA-02)

- Add shared a11y test helper with WCAG 2.1 A+AA axe-core configuration
- Add a11y tests for 11 main pages: Login, Home, Dashboard, Explore,
  SQL Lab, ChartList, DashboardList, DatabaseList, DatasetList,
  AlertReportList, plus SavedQueryList as bonus coverage
- Each test validates no axe-core violations and checks specific WCAG
  criteria (aria-labels, table headers, status indicators, form labels)
- Generate test report documenting coverage per WCAG criterion
- 8/15 criteria automatically testable, 7 require manual screenreader tests

Subject: [PATCH 24/41] test(a11y): add a11y regression test suite for upstream
 compatibility (INFRA-03)

- Source-based tests verify critical a11y patches across all 4 phases
- Checks SVGRenderer, aria-hidden, role=alert, aria-invalid, focus-visible
- Validates ECharts aria module, Dropdown/TableView aria-labels
- Designed to catch regressions during upstream merges/rebases

+
+---
+
+## C. Deployment-Schritte
+
+### 1. Repository klonen
+
+```bash
+git clone git@github.com:Aitema-gmbh/superset.git
+cd superset
+```
+
+### 2. Branch auschecken
+
+```bash
+git checkout fix/a11y-improvements-v3
+```
+
+### 3. Frontend bauen
+
+```bash
+cd superset-frontend
+npm ci
+npm run build
+```
+
+Der Build erzeugt die Produktions-Assets unter `superset-frontend/dist/`.
+
+### 4. Backend starten (unveraendert)
+
+Das Backend wird wie gewohnt gestartet. Es sind keine Aenderungen am Backend, an der Konfiguration oder an Datenbankmigrationen erforderlich.
+
+```bash
+# Beispiel mit Docker Compose (Standard-Superset-Setup)
+docker compose up -d
+
+# Oder manuell:
+superset run -h 0.0.0.0 -p 8088
+```
+
+### 5. Verifizierung mit automatisierten Tests
+
+```bash
+cd superset-frontend
+
+# Axe-Core Accessibility Tests ausfuehren
+npx jest --testPathPattern='a11y\.test' --no-coverage
+
+# Regressionstests ausfuehren
+npx jest --testPathPattern='a11y-regression' --no-coverage

+# Accessibility Developer Guide
+
+> Apache Superset — WCAG 2.1 AA Compliance Patterns
+>
+> This guide documents the accessibility patterns used in this codebase.
+> Follow these patterns when creating or modifying components.
+
+---
+
+## A. Overview
+
+Apache Superset targets **WCAG 2.1 Level AA** compliance. This project addresses 15 specific success criteria across four areas:
+
+| Area | Criteria Count | Level |
+|------|---------------|-------|
+| Level A Core | 5 | A |
+| Visual Presentation | 4 | AA |
+| Interaction | 7 | AA |
+| Infrastructure | 2 targets | n/a |
+
+For the full mapping of criteria to files and commits, see [WCAG_COMPLIANCE_MATRIX.md](./WCAG_COMPLIANCE_MATRIX.md).
+
+---
+
+## B. Architecture Patterns
+
+### 1. Accessible Icons
+
+**WCAG 1.1.1 — Non-text Content**
+
+Icons in Superset fall into two categories: **functional** (convey meaning or are clickable) and **decorative** (purely visual, next to text labels).
+
+#### Functional Icons (need accessible name)
+
+```tsx
+// Icon button with aria-label — user hears "Fullscreen"
+<Button
+  aria-label={t('Fullscreen')}
+  onClick={toggleFullscreen}
+>
+  <Icons.FullscreenExitOutlined />
+</Button>
+```
+
+#### Decorative Icons (hidden from screen readers)
+
+```tsx
+// Icon next to visible text — screen reader skips the icon
+<Icons.SaveOutlined aria-hidden="true" />
+<span>{t('Save')}</span>
+```
+
+#### How BaseIcon handles this automatically
+
+The `BaseIcon` component in `superset-ui-core` detects `aria-hidden` and adjusts behavior:
+
+```tsx
+// From BaseIcon.tsx
+const isDecorative = rest?.['aria-hidden'] === true || rest?.['aria-hidden'] === 'true';
+const whatRole = isDecorative ? 'presentation' : (rest?.onClick ? 'button' : 'img');
+const ariaLabel = isDecorative ? undefined : genAriaLabel(fileName || '');
+```
+
+**Rule:** If the icon is next to a visible text label, add `aria-hidden="true"`. If the icon is the only content of a button or link, ensure the parent has an `aria-label`.
+
+---
+
+### 2. Toggle States
+
+**WCAG 1.3.3 — Sensory Characteristics**
+
+Toggle buttons must expose their state programmatically, not just visually.
+
+#### aria-pressed for on/off toggles
+
+```tsx
+// Dashboard edit mode toggle
+<Button
+  aria-label={t('Edit dashboard')}
+  aria-pressed={editMode}
+  onClick={toggleEditMode}
+>
+  {t('Edit dashboard')}
+</Button>
+```
+
+#### aria-expanded for collapsible sections
+
+```tsx
+// Filter bar collapse/expand
+<Button
+  aria-label={isCollapsed ? t('Expand filter bar') : t('Collapse filter bar')}
+  aria-expanded={!isCollapsed}
+  onClick={toggleFilterBar}
+>
+  <Icons.FilterOutlined />
+</Button>
+```
+
+**Rule:** Use `aria-pressed` for toggles (on/off). Use `aria-expanded` for sections that show/hide content. Always include a descriptive `aria-label`.
+
+---
+
+### 3. Color-Independent Indicators
+
+**WCAG 1.4.1 — Use of Color**
+
+Never use color as the sole means of conveying information. Always provide a secondary indicator.
+
+#### Distinct shapes per status
+
+```tsx
+// AlertStatusIcon — each status has a unique icon shape
+const iconConfig = {
+  Success: <Icons.CheckCircleOutlined />,   // checkmark circle
+  Error:   <Icons.CloseCircleOutlined />,   // X circle
+  Working: <Icons.LoadingOutlined />,       // spinner
+  Noop:    <Icons.ClockCircleOutlined />,   // clock
+  Grace:   <Icons.ExclamationCircleOutlined />, // exclamation
+};
+```
+
+#### Text prefixes for error states
+
+```tsx
+// Error message with text prefix, not just red color
+<span>
+  <strong>{t('Error:')}</strong> {errorMessage}
+</span>
+```
+
+**Rule:** Status indicators need both color AND shape/text. Error messages need an "Error:" prefix or icon in addition to color.
+
+---
+
+### 4. Form Error Handling
+
+**WCAG 3.3.1 — Error Identification, WCAG 3.3.3 — Error Suggestion**
+
+Form errors must be programmatically linked to their inputs and include helpful correction hints.
+
+#### Linking errors to inputs
+
+```tsx
+// TextControl with aria-invalid and aria-describedby
+<input
+  aria-label={this.props.label}
+  aria-invalid={hasErrors || undefined}
+  aria-describedby={errorId}
+  id={this.props.controlId || this.props.name}
+/>
+{hasErrors && (
+  <span
+    id={errorId}
+    role="alert"
+    className="text-danger"
+  >
+    {validationErrors.join(', ')}
+  </span>
+)}
+```
+
+#### Error containers with role="alert"
+
+```tsx
+// Alert component with ARIA live region
+<AntdAlert
+  role="alert"
+  aria-atomic="true"
+  aria-live={type === 'error' ? 'assertive' : 'polite'}
+  type={type}
+  message={message}
+/>
+```
+
+#### Error messages with correction hints (WCAG 3.3.3)
+
+```tsx
+// Bad: generic error
+"Invalid input"
+
+// Good: error with suggestion
+"Password must be at least 8 characters. Include letters and numbers."
+"Email format: name@example.com"
+"SSH port must be a number between 1 and 65535 (e.g. 22)"
+```
+
+**Rules:**
+- Every validated input needs `aria-invalid` (true when error present, undefined otherwise)
+- Every error message element needs an `id` matching the input's `aria-describedby`
+- Error containers use `role="alert"` with `aria-atomic="true"`
+- Use `aria-live="assertive"` for errors, `"polite"` for warnings/info/success
+- Error text must suggest how to fix the problem
+
+---
+
+### 5. Text Sizing
+
+**WCAG 1.4.4 — Resize Text**
+
+Text must remain readable and functional at 200% zoom without loss of content.
+
+#### Use theme tokens instead of hardcoded pixels
+
+```tsx
+// Bad: hardcoded pixel size
+font-size: 12px;
+height: 24px;
+line-height: 18px;
+
+// Good: theme tokens and flexible sizing
+font-size: ${theme.fontSizeSM}px;     // resolves to 12px but scales with theme
+min-height: 24px;                      // min instead of fixed
+line-height: 1.5;                      // unitless — scales with font-size
+```
+
+#### Available theme tokens
+
+| Token | Default | Use for |
+|-------|---------|---------|
+| `theme.fontSizeSM` | 12 | Small/secondary text |
+| `theme.fontSize` | 14 | Body text (default) |
+| `theme.fontSizeLG` | 16 | Emphasized text |
+| `theme.fontSizeXL` | 22 | Headings, large icons |
+
+**Rules:**
+- Never use hardcoded `font-size` in pixels — use theme tokens
+- Use `min-height` instead of `height` for text containers
+- Use unitless `line-height` values (1, 1.2, 1.5) — they scale with font-size
+- Ensure containers use `flex-wrap` to accommodate text expansion at zoom
+
+---
+
+### 6. Accessible Charts (ECharts)
+
+**WCAG 1.4.5 — Images of Text, WCAG 1.1.1 — Non-text Content**
+
+Charts use SVGRenderer for accessible text and the ECharts aria module for screen reader descriptions.
+
+#### SVGRenderer for text accessibility
+
+```tsx
+// Echart.tsx — SVGRenderer instead of CanvasRenderer
+import { SVGRenderer } from 'echarts/renderers';
+import { AriaComponent } from 'echarts/components';
+
+use([
+  SVGRenderer,    // Text renders as real DOM elements, not canvas pixels
+  AriaComponent,  // Generates data descriptions for screen readers
+  BarChart,
+  // ... other chart types
+]);
+```
+
+#### ECharts aria module for data descriptions
+
+```tsx
+// Automatically generates screen-reader descriptions from chart data
+const ariaOptions = {
+  aria: {
+    enabled: true,
+    decal: { show: false }, // visual patterns handled separately
+    label: {
+      enabled: true,
+      description: echartOptions.title?.text || 'Chart data',
+    },
+  },
+};
+```
+
+#### Chart container accessibility
+
+```tsx
+// Chart component wraps visualization with role and label
+<div
+  role="img"
+  aria-label={`${chartName} — ${vizType} visualization`}
+>
+  {/* ECharts renders here */}
+</div>
+```
+
+**Rules:**
+- Always use `SVGRenderer` (never `CanvasRenderer`) for new chart plugins
+- Include `AriaComponent` in the `use()` registration
+- Chart containers need `role="img"` and `aria-label`
+- Provide a meaningful `aria.label.description` from chart title
+
+---
+
+### 7. Responsive Layout (Reflow)
+
+**WCAG 1.4.10 — Reflow**
+
+Content must reflow without horizontal scrolling at 320px viewport width (equivalent to 400% zoom at 1280px).
+
+#### Media query pattern
+
+```css
+/* Dashboard filter sidebar — collapses at narrow viewports */
+@media (max-width: 768px) {
+  display: none;
+}
+
+/* Dashboard content — takes full width when sidebar collapses */
+@media (max-width: 768px) {
+  max-width: 100vw;
+}
+```
+
+#### Navigation wrapping
+
+```css
+/* SubMenu items wrap at narrow viewports */
+@media (max-width: 480px) {
+  flex-wrap: wrap;
+}
+```
+
+#### Modals at narrow viewports
+
+```css
+/* Modals go full-width on small screens */
+@media (max-width: 768px) {
+  .ant-modal {
+    max-width: 100vw;
+    margin: 0;
+  }
+}
+```
+
+**Rules:**
+- Test at 320px viewport width — no horizontal scrollbar
+- Sidebar navigation should collapse or stack above content
+- Modals should go full-width on narrow screens
+- Use `flex-wrap: wrap` for navigation items and toolbars
+- Never set a fixed `width` that would cause overflow — use `max-width` with `100%` or `100vw`
+
+---
+
+### 8. Focus Management
+
+**WCAG 2.4.7 — Focus Visible, WCAG 1.4.11 — Non-text Contrast**
+
+Every interactive element must have a visible focus indicator with at least 3:1 contrast ratio.
+
+#### Global baseline (already applied)
+
+```tsx
+// GlobalStyles.tsx — applies to all interactive elements
+*:focus-visible {
+  outline: 2px solid ${theme.colorPrimary};
+  outline-offset: 2px;
+}
+```
+
+#### Component-level override when needed
+
+```tsx
+// When the global outline doesn't work well (e.g., on dark backgrounds)
+const FocusableItem = styled.div`
+  &:focus-visible {
+    box-shadow: 0 0 0 2px ${theme.colorPrimary};
+    outline: none;
+  }
+`;
+```
+
+#### Never remove focus indicators
+
+```tsx
+// Bad: removes focus indicator entirely
+outline: none;
+
+// Good: transparent outline that :focus-visible overrides
+outline: 2px solid transparent;
+```
+
+**Rules:**
+- Never add `outline: none` without a replacement focus style
+- Use `:focus-visible` (not `:focus`) to avoid showing focus rings on mouse click
+- Focus indicators need at least 3:1 contrast against the background
+- The global `*:focus-visible` in GlobalStyles provides a baseline — override per component only when necessary
+
+---
+
+### 9. Navigation Consistency
+
+**WCAG 3.2.3 — Consistent Navigation, WCAG 3.1.2 — Language of Parts**
+
+Navigation landmarks must be labeled and the page language must be set programmatically.
+
+#### Labeled navigation landmarks
+
+```tsx
+// Primary navigation — always has the same aria-label
+<nav aria-label={t('Main navigation')}>
+  {/* ... menu items */}
+</nav>
+
+// Secondary page navigation
+<nav aria-label={t('Page navigation')}>
+  {/* ... sub-menu items */}
+</nav>
+```
+
+#### Document language
+
+```tsx
+// App.tsx — set from bootstrapData locale
+useEffect(() => {
+  const locale = bootstrapData?.common?.locale || 'en';
+  document.documentElement.lang = locale;
+}, [bootstrapData]);
+```
+
+**Rules:**
+- Every `<nav>` element needs a unique `aria-label`
+- Navigation order must remain consistent across pages
+- Document `lang` attribute must be set from the application locale
+
+---
+
+## C. Testing Guide
+
+### Automated Tests
+
+Run all accessibility-specific tests:
+
+```bash
+# Run all a11y tests (axe-core page tests + component tests)
+cd superset-frontend
+npx jest --testPathPattern="a11y" --no-cache
+
+# Run only the regression test suite
+npx jest src/a11y-regression.test.tsx --no-cache
+
+# Run a specific page's a11y test
+npx jest src/pages/Dashboard/Dashboard.a11y.test.tsx --no-cache
+```
+
+### Test Helper
+
+The shared test helper at `spec/helpers/a11yTestHelper.tsx` provides:
+- Pre-configured axe-core with WCAG 2.1 A+AA ruleset
+- Helper function to run axe against rendered components
+- Standard configuration for common Superset test scenarios
+
+### Manual Testing Resources
+
+- **Screenreader Test Protocol:** [`docs/screenreader-test-protocol.md`](./screenreader-test-protocol.md)
+- **Cross-browser Test Matrix:** [`docs/cross-browser-test-matrix.md`](./cross-browser-test-matrix.md)
+- **axe-core Test Report:** [`docs/a11y-test-report.md`](./a11y-test-report.md)
+
+### Quick Manual Checks
+
+1. **Tab through the page** — can you reach every interactive element?
+2. **Check focus visibility** — is there a visible outline on the focused element?
+3. **Zoom to 200%** — does text reflow without horizontal scrolling?
+4. **Zoom to 400%** (or resize to 320px) — is content still usable?
+5. **Turn off CSS colors** — can you still distinguish status indicators?
+6. **Test with a screen reader** — are icons, charts, and errors announced?
+

+
+---
+
+## Sprint 1: Level A Fixes
+
+### WCAG 1.1.1 — Non-text Content
+
+**Commits:** `c7aa5eaac7`, `e9411bb351`
+
+All icon buttons now carry descriptive `aria-label` attributes. Decorative icons are marked `aria-hidden="true"` with `role="presentation"` so screen readers skip them. Chart containers received `role="img"` and `aria-label` with the chart name and visualization type. Status icons (AlertStatusIcon, TaskStatusIcon) include visually-hidden screen-reader text announcing the status.
+
+**Affected areas:** Dashboard header (Undo, Redo, Save, Fullscreen), SQL Lab toolbar (Save, Share, Download, Copy, Estimate Cost), Explore header, SliceHeaderControls, Chart component, Alert/Task status icons.
+
+### WCAG 1.3.3 — Sensory Characteristics
+
+**Commit:** `91f9413662`
+
+Toggle buttons throughout the application now expose their pressed/expanded state via ARIA attributes rather than relying solely on visual appearance. The edit-dashboard button uses `aria-pressed`, the auto-refresh toggle uses `aria-pressed`, filter bar collapse/expand controls use `aria-expanded`, and the DrillBy display mode radio group carries `aria-label`.
+
+**Affected areas:** Dashboard header, filter bar, DrillBy panel, auto-refresh indicator.
+
+### WCAG 1.4.1 — Use of Color
+
+**Commit:** `25dc1817de`
+
+Status indicators no longer rely on color alone. Each alert status has a distinct icon shape (CheckCircle for success, CloseCircle for error, Loading for working, Clock for noop, Exclamation for grace). Error messages include an "Error:" text prefix. Color scheme labels carry `aria-label` with the scheme name.
+
+**Affected areas:** AlertStatusIcon, ChartErrorMessage, ImportModal ErrorAlert, ColorSchemeLabel.
+
+### WCAG 3.3.1 — Error Identification
+
+**Commits:** `72ca7ce7a5`, `b3ac3d030a`
+
+Error containers now use `role="alert"` with `aria-atomic="true"` and appropriate `aria-live` levels (assertive for errors, polite for warnings/info). Form inputs link to their error messages via `aria-invalid` and `aria-describedby`. This covers the Alert component, BasicErrorAlert, ErrorAlert, and 10+ form components including LabeledErrorBoundInput, TextControl, NumberControl, AlertReportModal, SSHTunnelForm, and SqlAlchemyForm.
+
+**Affected areas:** All error/alert UI, all validated form fields.
+
+---
+
+## Sprint 2: Level AA Visual
+
+### WCAG 1.4.4 — Resize Text
+
+**Commit:** `909b3b8d03`
+
+Hardcoded pixel font sizes replaced with theme tokens (`theme.fontSize`, `theme.fontSizeSM`, `theme.fontSizeXL`). Fixed `height` values converted to `min-height` to accommodate text scaling. Line-heights converted from pixel values to unitless ratios (1, 1.2, 1.5). Navigation wraps properly at 200% zoom.
+
+**Affected areas:** Menu, SubMenu, SliceHeader, SliceHeaderControls, DateFilterLabel, ScheduleQueryButton, TabbedSqlEditors, CustomizationsBadge, RunQueryActionButton, TextControl, NumberControl, SparklineCell, SSHTunnelForm.
+
+### WCAG 1.4.5 — Images of Text
+
+**Commit:** `f821f5f47c`
+
+ECharts switched from `CanvasRenderer` to `SVGRenderer`. All chart text (axis labels, legends, data labels) now renders as SVG DOM elements instead of canvas bitmap pixels. This makes chart text selectable, scalable, and accessible to assistive technology. The fallback chart card SVG image received `role="img"`, `aria-label`, and a `<title>` element.
+
+**Performance note:** SVGRenderer may show slightly different rendering performance characteristics compared to CanvasRenderer for very large datasets (10,000+ data points). For typical dashboard usage, there is no noticeable difference.
+
+**Affected areas:** All ECharts-based visualizations (13+ chart types), chart-card-fallback.svg.
+
+### WCAG 1.4.10 — Reflow
+
+**Commits:** `d4ef04a6e0`, `9c4c31edd6`
+
+Responsive CSS media queries ensure content reflows without horizontal scrolling at 320px viewport width (equivalent to 400% zoom on a 1280px display). The filter sidebar collapses, modals go full-width, navigation stacks vertically, and filter controls take full width at narrow breakpoints.
+
+**Affected areas:** DashboardBuilder, BuilderComponentPane, ConfigModal, ConfigModalSidebar, Menu, SubMenu, FilterDivider, GroupByFilterCard.
+
+### WCAG 1.4.11 — Non-text Contrast
+
+**Commit:** `6f871bc61f`
+
+UI component borders strengthened from ~1.04:1 to ~3.54:1 contrast ratio by replacing `colorSplit` with `colorTextTertiary`. Focus indicators strengthened from `colorPrimaryBorderHover` to `colorPrimary` (~4.68:1). Applied globally via Ant Design CSS overrides for input borders, dividers, and focus shadows.
+
+**Affected areas:** GlobalStyles, ECharts axis/grid lines, SkipLink, filter focus highlights, RangeFilterPlugin, TimeFilterPlugin.
+
+---
+
+## Sprint 3: Level AA Interaction
+
+### WCAG 1.3.5 — Identify Input Purpose
+
+**Commit:** `488e7e3058`
+
+Standard `autoComplete` attributes added to all user-facing form inputs. Login form uses `username` and `current-password`. Registration uses `new-password`. SSH tunnel fields use `off` for security. User management forms include `given-name`, `family-name`, `email`, and `new-password`.
+
+**Affected areas:** Login, Register, SSHTunnelForm, UserListModal, UserInfoModal.
+
+### WCAG 1.4.13 — Content on Hover or Focus
+
+**Commit:** `e419504576`
+
+All popover and tooltip components now dismiss on Escape key press. This includes TaskStackTracePopover, TaskPayloadPopover, AG Grid CustomPopover, and DeckGL Tooltip. The DeckGL Tooltip also gained `pointer-events: auto` so hover content is itself hoverable.
+
+**Affected areas:** Task popovers, AG Grid popover, DeckGL map tooltip.
+
+### WCAG 2.4.6 — Headings and Labels
+
+**Commit:** `2a5755a135`
+
+Visually-hidden `<h1>` headings added to all major pages (Dashboard, Explore/Chart, Home, ChartCreation). Section-level `<h2>` headings added for Filters and Dashboard Content areas. The ChartCreation heading hierarchy was fixed from `<h3>` to `<h2>`. All headings use the clip/sr-only CSS pattern for screen-reader-only display.
+
+**Affected areas:** Dashboard header, Explore header, Home page, ChartCreation page, DashboardBuilder.
+
+### WCAG 2.4.7 — Focus Visible
+
+**Commit:** `5181b5026c`
+
+A global `*:focus-visible` rule provides a baseline 2px solid primary-color outline on all interactive elements. Previous `outline: none` declarations replaced with `outline: 2px solid transparent` to support the `:focus-visible` override. Individual components received additional focus indicators where the global rule alone was insufficient.
+
+**Affected areas:** GlobalStyles (global baseline), dashboard styles, FilterScopeSelector, WithPopoverMenu, FiltersBadge, ConditionalFormattingControl, VizTypeGallery, RangeFilterPlugin, TimeFilterPlugin.
+
+### WCAG 3.1.2 — Language of Parts
+
+**Commit:** `41a45ee6ba`
+
+The `<html>` element's `lang` attribute is now dynamically set from `bootstrapData.common.locale` on application startup. This ensures screen readers use the correct pronunciation rules.
+
+**Affected areas:** App.tsx (application root).
+
+### WCAG 3.2.3 — Consistent Navigation
+
+**Commit:** `41a45ee6ba`
+
+Navigation landmarks received descriptive `aria-label` attributes: "Main navigation" for the primary header and "Page navigation" for SubMenu sections. This enables screen reader users to distinguish between navigation regions.
+
+**Affected areas:** Menu.tsx, SubMenu.tsx.
+
+### WCAG 3.3.3 — Error Suggestion
+
+**Commit:** `41a45ee6ba`
+
+Form validation error messages now include actionable correction hints instead of generic "invalid" messages. Login errors suggest checking credentials or contacting an admin. Registration errors include format expectations. SSH tunnel errors show example values. Password errors state minimum requirements.
+
+**Affected areas:** Login, Register, SSHTunnelForm, UserInfoModal.
+
+---
+
+## Sprint 4: Infrastructure Patches
+
+### INFRA-01 — Ant Design Component Accessibility
+
+**Commit:** `c973ff29eb`
+
+Four Ant Design wrapper components received accessibility enhancements:
+- **MenuDotsDropdown:** `aria-label="More actions"`, `role="button"`, `tabIndex={0}`
+- **ConfirmModal:** `aria-labelledby` pointing to modal title element
+- **ModalTrigger:** `aria-label` derived from `modalTitle`, keyboard handler for Enter/Space
+- **TableView:** `aria-label` prop (default "Data table"), `role="region"` wrapper
+
+### INFRA-02 — ECharts Accessibility Module
+
+**Commit:** `73482d0eec`
+
+Enabled the ECharts built-in `AriaComponent` module which generates automatic data descriptions for screen readers. Chart containers received `role="img"` and `aria-label` with fallback to chart title or generic description.
+
+---
+
+## QA & Testing Deliverables
+
+### QA-01 — Screenreader Test Protocol
+
+**Commit:** `baa51d2e62`
+**File:** `superset-frontend/docs/screenreader-test-protocol.md`
+
+Complete test protocol covering all 15 WCAG criteria with step-by-step instructions for NVDA (Chrome/Firefox) and VoiceOver (Safari).
+
+### QA-02 — axe-core Automated Tests
+
+**Commit:** `d3b6ab7031`
+**Files:** `spec/helpers/a11yTestHelper.tsx`, 11 page-level `*.a11y.test.tsx` files
+
+Automated accessibility tests for 11 main pages using axe-core with WCAG 2.1 A+AA ruleset. Covers Login, Home, Dashboard, Explore, SQL Lab, ChartList, DashboardList, DatabaseList, DatasetList, AlertReportList, and SavedQueryList.
+
+### QA-03 — Cross-browser Test Matrix
+
+**Commit:** `baa51d2e62`
+**File:** `superset-frontend/docs/cross-browser-test-matrix.md`
+
+Structured test matrix for Chrome, Firefox, Safari, and Edge with result templates.
+
+### INFRA-03 — Regression Test Suite
+
+**Commit:** `695e1f6a88`
+**File:** `superset-frontend/src/a11y-regression.test.tsx`
+
+Source-based regression tests that verify critical accessibility patches survive upstream merges and rebases. Checks SVGRenderer registration, aria-hidden handling, role=alert, aria-invalid, focus-visible, ECharts aria module, and Ant Design wrapper accessibility.
+
+---
+
+## Migration Guide
+
+### Breaking Changes
+
+**None.** All changes are additive — existing functionality, APIs, and configurations remain unchanged.
+
+### SVGRenderer Performance Note
+
+ECharts visualization rendering switched from `CanvasRenderer` to `SVGRenderer` (commit `f821f5f47c`). This is necessary for WCAG 1.4.5 compliance (text must not be rendered as images). For dashboards with extremely large datasets (10,000+ data points per chart), monitor rendering performance. If issues arise, the change is isolated to a single file (`Echart.tsx`).
+
+### Theme Token Migration
+
+Several components had hardcoded pixel values replaced with Superset theme tokens (commit `909b3b8d03`). If you have custom themes, ensure `fontSize`, `fontSizeSM`, and `fontSizeXL` are properly defined. The default theme values are unchanged.
+
+### Ant Design CSS Overrides
+
+Global CSS overrides for Ant Design input borders and dividers were added in `GlobalStyles.tsx` (commit `6f871bc61f`). Custom themes using `colorSplit` for borders should verify their contrast ratios meet the 3:1 minimum.

Subject: [PATCH 28/41] a11y(1.4.4): add html font-size 100% and fix useId
 crash on React 17

- Add html { font-size: 100% } in GlobalStyles.tsx to ensure base font
  size respects browser preferences (WCAG 1.4.4)
- Replace React 18 useId() with useState() in Login/index.tsx and
  Modal/ModalFormField.tsx for React 17 compatibility
- Fixes login page crash: "TypeError: useId is not a function"

Subject: [PATCH 29/41] a11y(3.3.3): use neutral login error message per

The error message now avoids assuming credential failure, while still
providing a correction suggestion as required by WCAG 3.3.3.

Subject: [PATCH 32/41] a11y(1.4.11): improve palette color contrast ratio to
 meet WCAG 3:1

Darken 4 categorical palette colors that had insufficient contrast
against white backgrounds (WCAG 1.4.11 non-text contrast):

- #5AC189 -> #4DA575 (green, 2.23:1 -> 3.02:1)
- #FF7F44 -> #E8733D (orange, 2.51:1 -> 3.02:1)
- #FCC700 -> #B58F00 (yellow, 1.58:1 -> 3.05:1)
- #3CCCCB -> #30A3A2 (cyan, 1.96:1 -> 3.05:1)

Also update sequential/diverging palettes (superset_seq_2, superset_div_2).

Subject: [PATCH 33/41] a11y(1.4.10): fix remaining reflow issues at narrow
 viewports

- SqlEditorLeftBar: add @media (max-width: 768px) to override min-width: 500px
- SaveDatasetModal: add @media (max-width: 480px) for form field max-width
- Vertical FilterBar: add @media (max-width: 768px) display: none as safety net

All fixed-width components now reflow correctly at 320px CSS width.
Data tables exempt per WCAG (two-dimensional content).

Subject: [PATCH 35/41] a11y(1.4.3): enforce link color override with
 !important

One link on the Home page inherited colorPrimary (3.55:1) via
higher-specificity styled-component rules, bypassing the global
a { color: #0d7090 } rule (5.62:1). Add !important to ensure
all links meet the 4.5:1 contrast threshold.

Subject: [PATCH 36/41] a11y(1.4.3): scope link color override to exclude
 button-styled links

The previous !important override applied to all <a> elements, which could
break white-on-dark button links. Narrow selector to exclude ant-btn and
role="button" elements. Verified on live deployment (v13) that primary
buttons, filled buttons, and link-style buttons retain correct colors.

Subject: [PATCH 37/41] a11y(4.1.2): add aria-labels to all icon-only buttons
 across all pages

Adds accessible names to 30+ icon-only interactive elements that were
previously announced as just "button" by screen readers:

- SubMenu: pass aria-label prop to import buttons (Dashboard, Chart,
  SavedQuery, Theme)
- ListView: aria-label on grid/list view toggle buttons
- Search filter: labeled clear icon via allowClear config
- FaveStar: dynamic "Add to/Remove from favorites" label
- Action buttons (Edit, Export, Delete, Duplicate, Cancel, Sync) on
  all list pages: Dashboard, Chart, Dataset, Database, Tags, RLS, Task
- Explore: collapse/open datasource panel buttons
- Dashboard: IconButton aria-label fallback, Tabs close icon

Subject: [PATCH 38/41] a11y(1.4.5+1.4.1): fix SVG renderer and add line chart
 visual patterns

1.4.5: Explicitly set renderer:'svg' in ECharts init() to guarantee SVG
output. The full 'echarts' import in ZoomConfigsChart registered
CanvasRenderer as a side effect, overriding the modular SVGRenderer.
Migrated ZoomConfigsChart and zoomUtil to echarts/core modular imports.

1.4.1: Add distinct dash patterns and symbols per line series so
information is not conveyed by color alone. Applies to both Timeseries
and MixedTimeseries chart types.

Subject: [PATCH 39/41] a11y(MR-01..04): fix defects from acceptance testing
MIME-Version: 1.0
Content-Type: text/plain; charset=UTF-8
Content-Transfer-Encoding: 8bit

MR-01: Add aria-labels to 3 icon-only buttons in dashboard edit mode
  (DeleteComponentButton, Column settings, Row settings)
MR-02: Fix secondary button contrast — use colorPrimaryText instead of
  colorPrimaryTextHover for WCAG 1.4.11 compliance (>= 3:1)
MR-03: Remove overflow-x:hidden from header at narrow viewports to allow
  proper menu item reflow at 400% zoom (WCAG 1.4.10)
MR-04: Remove tabIndex={-1} from brand link to restore keyboard navigation

Subject: [PATCH 40/41] a11y(1.4.11): fix secondary button contrast for dark
 mode

colorPrimaryText has sufficient contrast in light mode but fails in
dark mode (~2.7:1 on colorPrimaryBg). Use colorText instead, which
provides >= 4:1 contrast in both light and dark mode.

Subject: [PATCH 41/41] a11y(2.1.1): make all menu items reachable via Tab key

Ant Design menubar sets tabIndex=-1 on all items except the first,
requiring arrow-key navigation. This useEffect override ensures every
top-level menu item (including submenus like "SQL Lab") gets tabIndex=0,
making them focusable via Tab key as users expect.
