Actual Results

The "Edit link" button, which appears in the floating toolbar when navigating to a link in editor mode, lacks an accessible name. Consequently, when using a screen reader, this button is announced solely as a button without any identifying label.

As a result, users of assistive technologies will not be able to understand the purpose or the functionality associated with this button.

Expected Results

Interactive elements must have programmatically defined accessible names so that their functionality is communicated to assistive technology users.

In this context, assign an accessible name to the specified button, such as "Edit link," by using the aria-label attribute. Make sure that the accessible name signpost the purpose or the functionality of the button.

Code Snippet:

<button aria-label="Edit link" type="button" ...>
...
</button>
