💡 What: Added aria-label to the search input fields in the coverage UI.
🎯 Why: The search input previously relied solely on placeholder text for context, which is an accessibility anti-pattern. Adding an explicit aria-label ensures screen readers can correctly identify the purpose of the input field.
📸 Before/After: Visuals remain unchanged; this is an under-the-hood accessibility enhancement.
♿ Accessibility: Improves screen reader support by providing a clear, programmatic label for the search input.

Code Review

This pull request improves accessibility by adding aria-label attributes to search input fields in the UI. The reviewer suggests further enhancing these inputs by changing the type from text to search for better semantic correctness and ensuring the aria-label matches the placeholder text exactly.

While adding aria-label is a significant accessibility improvement, using type="search" instead of type="text" is a better practice for search inputs. It semantically identifies the field's purpose to assistive technologies and provides built-in browser features like a 'clear' button. Additionally, the aria-label should ideally match the placeholder text exactly (including the ellipsis if it's considered part of the label) or be even more concise.

input #search-box.search-box type="text" placeholder="Search by AC ID or title..."
aria-label="Search by AC ID or title"
input #search-box.search-box type="search" placeholder="Search by AC ID or title..."

For better accessibility and semantic correctness, consider changing the input type to search. This helps screen readers identify the field as a search box and enables browser-specific UI enhancements. Also, ensure the aria-label is consistent with the placeholder text.

Suggested change
input #search-box.search-box type="text" placeholder="Search by AC ID or title..."
aria-label="Search by AC ID or title"
input #search-box.search-box type="search" placeholder="Search by AC ID or title..."
aria-label="Search by AC ID or title..."
