This means that users should be able to use the Tab, Enter, and Arrow keys to move through and select options without requiring a mouse.<\/p><p>A visible focus indicator (often a coloured outline) shows users where they are on the page as they tab through elements. Ensure this focus is easy to see and consistent, so users can clearly identify the selected item.<\/p><p>A person can manually test for keyboard accessibility by using the Tab key to check the functionality of interactive elements, like buttons, links, and form fields. They can also test interactions\u2014such as activating buttons with Enter or Space and closing pop-ups\u2014to confirm smooth, keyboard-only navigation.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/section>\n\t\t\t\t<section class=\"elementor-section elementor-top-section elementor-element elementor-element-97e1b1c disable-default elementor-section-boxed elementor-section-height-default elementor-section-height-default\" data-id=\"97e1b1c\" data-element_type=\"section\" id=\"6\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-container elementor-column-gap-default\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-column elementor-col-100 elementor-top-column elementor-element elementor-element-98e1674\" data-id=\"98e1674\" data-element_type=\"column\">\n\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-wrap elementor-element-populated\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-cd81578 elementor-widget elementor-widget-text-editor\" data-id=\"cd81578\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"text-editor.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<h3>6.
