      Actual Results

      When user navigate to date widget and enters wrong date, an error message such as "Choose a start date that’s earlier than the end date." becomes appear in red color text. There is no visual clue to identify an error message such as "error" text or warning icon. As a result, screen reader users might get confuse.

      Expected Results

      Provide some visual cue or some icon to identify the error message. Provide the text "Error" just before the error message such as "Error: Choose a start date that’s earlier than the end date."
