<title>WordPress Trac: Ticket #61795: Lighthouse shows invalid ARIA role error for role="group"</title>
<link>https://core.trac.wordpress.org/ticket/61795</link>
<description><p>
I've found the <code>Accessibility</code> role error in the admin bar.
Ref: <a class="ext-link" href="https://tinyurl.com/2cp6mj4c"><span class="icon"></span>https://tinyurl.com/2cp6mj4c</a>
</p>
<p>
As per the <code>ARIA</code> docs suggestion, we can fix it by adding a <code>none</code> role in the li tag.
Docs: <a class="ext-link" href="https://dequeuniversity.com/rules/axe/4.9/aria-allowed-role"><span class="icon"></span>https://dequeuniversity.com/rules/axe/4.9/aria-allowed-role</a>

<p>
The test in Lighthouse is incorrect; the <code>group</code> role is permitted on list items as long as the parent list does *not* have the <code>list</code> role. The parent node in this case is a <code>ul</code> with <code>role="menu"</code>, so it is correct.
</p>
<p>
This is correct per <a class="ext-link" href="https://html.spec.whatwg.org/multipage/grouping-content.html#the-li-element"><span class="icon"></span>the HTML ARIA specifications for `li`</a>.
</p>
<p>
Recommend closing.

You're welcome to make comments if you believe that this is a problem that needs to be addressed. However, we're not going to remove existing semantics just because some testing tools incorrectly register this as an error.

Thank you for the clarification. I completely understand the reasoning behind keeping the current semantics. That said, I’ve also encountered the same ARIA role error in my environment, particularly in the admin bar<a class="ext-link" href="https://maison-snowwhite.com/hello-world/"><span class="icon"></span>.</a> Just wanted to share in case it’s helpful for ongoing accessibility considerations. Appreciate the team's attention to detail!
