Walkthrough

Added extensive accessibility and testability instrumentation to the global config settings tab: Semantics wrappers, ExcludeSemantics for raw text, and unique diagnostic keys for rows, keys, server/local values, and editable containers. Behavioral logic and public APIs remain unchanged.

Changes

Cohort / File(s) Summary
Accessibility & Semantic Enhancements
lib/ui/settings/widgets/global_config_settings_tab.dart
Wrapped configuration rows and fields with Semantics and ExcludeSemantics; added unique keys such as config_row_<key>, config_key_<key>, server_value_<key>, local_value_<key>_container, local_value_<key>_textfield; widened editable containers for layout stability; adjusted bottom-row button wrapping/alignment while preserving enabled/disabled behavior and save/change detection logic.

Poem

🐰 I hopped through rows with keys in tow,
Wrapped each text so semantics grow,
Containers widened, labels set just right,
Testing and reading now take flight.
A little rabbit cheers the accessible night.

403-444: Fix contradictory Semantics configuration and improve accessibility labels.

The Semantics implementation has several issues:

  1. Contradictory settings: The parent Semantics has excludeSemantics: false (line 406) while child Text widgets are wrapped with ExcludeSemantics (lines 414, 429). This creates confusion about what should be announced by screen readers.

  2. Non-user-friendly labels: Using config.key (line 404) as the semantic label exposes technical configuration keys (e.g., "mosip.registration.max.retry") to screen readers instead of human-readable descriptions.

  3. Semantic structure: The current structure doesn't provide meaningful context about what each column represents (config key, server value, local value).

Consider restructuring the semantics to provide a coherent, user-friendly description:

return Semantics(
  label: 'Configuration: ${config.key}. Server value: ${config.serverValue}. Local value: ${config.localValue.isEmpty ? "not set" : config.localValue}',
  container: true,
  child: Padding(
    key: Key('config_row_${config.key}'),
    padding: const EdgeInsets.symmetric(horizontal: 20, vertical: 15),
    child: Row(
      children: [
        Expanded(
          flex: 2,
          child: Text(
            config.key,
            key: Key('config_key_${config.key}'),
            style: TextStyle(
              fontSize: 12,
              fontWeight: config.isModified ? FontWeight.bold : FontWeight.normal,
              color: config.isModified ? Colors.blue : Colors.black,
            ),
          ),
        ),
        // ... rest of the row
      ],
    ),
  ),
);

This provides screen reader users with complete, meaningful information about each configuration row.


500-529: Fix broken Semantics configuration for read-only text.

The Semantics wrapper has excludeSemantics: true (line 506), which prevents the semantic properties (label, hint, tooltip on lines 503-505) from being exposed to screen readers. This makes the entire Semantics wrapper ineffective for accessibility purposes.

Additionally, like the editable field, the semantic labels use technical identifiers instead of user-friendly descriptions.

🔧 Proposed fix
  Widget _buildReadOnlyText(GlobalConfigItem config) {
-   final uniqueId = 'local_value_${config.key}';
    return Semantics(
-     label: uniqueId,
-     hint: uniqueId,
-     tooltip: uniqueId,
-     excludeSemantics: true,
+     label: 'Local value for ${config.key}: ${config.localValue.isEmpty ? "not set" : config.localValue}',
+     hint: 'This configuration is read-only',
+     excludeSemantics: false,
      container: true,
      child: Container(
-       key: Key(uniqueId),
+       key: Key('local_value_${config.key}'),
        padding: const EdgeInsets.symmetric(
          horizontal: 8,
          vertical: 8,
        ),
        decoration: BoxDecoration(
          border: Border.all(color: Colors.grey[300]!),
          borderRadius: BorderRadius.circular(4),
          color: Colors.grey[100],
        ),
        child: Text(
          config.localValue.isEmpty ? '-' : config.localValue,
          style: TextStyle(
            color: config.isModified ? Colors.blue : Colors.grey[600],
            fontSize: 12,
            fontWeight: config.isModified ? FontWeight.bold : FontWeight.normal,
          ),
        ),
      ),
    );
  }

In @lib/ui/settings/widgets/global_config_settings_tab.dart:
- Around line 459-497: The Semantics wrapper in _buildEditableTextField
currently exposes technical identifiers via uniqueId for label/hint/tooltip;
replace those with user-friendly text derived from the config (e.g., use a
human-readable name like config.displayName or a mapped label for
GlobalConfigItem, and use config.serverValue as the hint/tooltip fallback).
Update the Semantics properties (label, hint, tooltip) and the TextField's
decoration.hintText to use these descriptive strings so screen readers get
meaningful context while falling back to config.key only if no displayName/label
exists.

403-529: Verify the accessibility implementation against Flutter's actual API and best practices.

The suggestion to use semanticsLabel on TextField is incorrect—Flutter's TextField widget does not support a semanticsLabel parameter. The current implementation using Semantics(textField: true, ...) is actually the recommended approach for providing accessibility labels to text fields.

To improve accessibility:

  • Consider using a more user-friendly label instead of dev-facing keys (e.g., "${config.key} value, editable" instead of 'local_value_${config.key}').
  • Add labelText to InputDecoration (in addition to or instead of relying solely on hintText) to provide clearer field context for screen readers:
    decoration: InputDecoration(
      labelText: config.key,  // Provides semantic context
      hintText: config.serverValue,
      ...
    )
  • Consolidate redundant Semantics properties: hint and tooltip set to the same value as label provide no additional benefit and can confuse assistive technology.

Likely an incorrect or invalid review comment.
