Hello @SAP/ui5-webcomponents-topic-p,

I thoroughly examined the example and tested the accessibility announcements using JAWS 2024. My observations indicate that JAWS didn't pronounce the accessible name of the ui5-checkbox inside tree nodes, which are part of the implementation inside the ListItem.

Additionally, I noticed that initially, it accurately announces the tree as being in multi-selection mode by stating: "Contains Multi-Selectable Items". This is why I'm not entirely convinced that there is an actual issue. It requires further clarifications from an accessibility expert.

Another aspect worth considering is the double announcement of the word "Selected" by the screen reader when a checkbox is checked/unchecked.

Please, refer to the video I've attached below for more information.

Best, Konstantin

Hello @yoganjan ,

Thanks for your ticket!

The accessible name of the ui5-tree-item is supposed to be announced only on focus. When you select/deselect the checkbox of an item, only the state of the item is supposed to be announced ("Selected" / "Not Selected").

As you can see in the video, attached by @kgogov, the control works as expected.

As for the double announcement of the "Selected" state - already there is open issue about this behaviour - #6878.

Kind Regards, Yana
