Actual Results

The purpose of the “Username” and "Password" input fields is not identified programmatically.
If the purpose of the input fields is not defined programmatically, information can not be customized. Users with learning and mobility impairments will not be able to access the information in different modalities provided by user agents, such as browsers and assistive technologies.

Expected Results

The purpose of the input fields collecting information about the user should be defined programmatically using the 'autocomplete' attribute. This will make it easier for users with learning and mobility impairments to fill up the form.
Use HTML 5.2 autocomplete attribute to add token values for the "Username” and "Password" input fields. This will improve the browser's auto-fill feature as well as can be used by plug-ins to fill in the details for users with mobility and cognitive impairments.
