How TheSiteFuse checks "Form field labels"

A label is the text associated with a form field. It can be a <label for="field-id"> tag, an aria-label attribute, or by wrapping the field in a <label> tag. Without a label, the field may be visually clear but is technically "anonymous" for assistive technologies.

Real-world impact of "Form field labels"

Screen readers used by visually impaired people read the label to announce what the field is for. Without a label, the user just hears "text field" with no indication of what to enter. It's a WCAG 2.1 Level A criterion (mandatory for public services and banks in France).
