Interactive Samples

Definition:

Change of Context: A change of context occurs when there are major changes in the content of the web page that, if made without user awareness, can confuse users who are not able to view the entire page simultaneously, e.g., viewport changes, a new window is launched when a radio button is selected, a form is automatically submitted when exiting a form field, content is rearranged such that the web page is now confusing.

Tips:

  • You are only looking to see if the change is unexpected. If the control is clearly intended to trigger a change (such as a button to change page language) or the user is notified, this is no longer unexpected behavior and will pass.
