  • Estimated Time: 10–15 minutes
  • Difficulty: Level 1 (Beginner)

Why This Matters

Accessibility is essential for all PACT OS users. Action buttons without explicit ARIA labels can prevent screen readers from accurately announcing button functionality, and missing type="button" attributes can cause accidental form submissions.

Current Behavior

Reset triggers inside src/components/habits/habit-card.tsx perform streak reset actions but lack explicit aria-label attributes and explicit type="button" declarations.

Requested Change

Update the habit card reset trigger elements in src/components/habits/habit-card.tsx to include:

  1. aria-label="Reset streak progress for habit"
  2. type="button"

Acceptance Criteria

  • Explicit aria-label added to reset button element.
  • type="button" attribute declared.
  • Verification test suite passes cleanly with npm run test:file -- tests/habits-routines.test.ts.

Verification

npm run test:file -- tests/habits-routines.test.ts

Contributor Notes
