Consistent labels (labeling)

Identical functionality components, such as buttons, links, or forms, use the same text labels or names across all pages to avoid confusion.


Inconsistent alt text for functional images:

These two image-based controls perform the same function (open Help), but expose different text alternatives:

Screen reader users will hear different labels for the same action (e.g., “More information” vs “Help center”), which violates consistent identification.

Note: Impossible to auto-test. Requires a human tester or AI to verify that image-based controls with the same function expose identical labels/names (e.g., matching alt text).
