Bug Report
- Package version(s): Latest
- Browser and OS versions: Chrome win10
Are you willing to submit a PR to fix? No
Requested priority: High
Products/sites affected: Office ui fabric react components - SearchBox Component and all websites using this component.
Can be seen here: http://dev.office.com/fabric#/components/searchbox
Describe the issue:
Go to SearchBox Component
Use this tool: Google Accessibility - Accessibility Developer tools
and run an audit from the Audits tab in the Developer tools in chrome.
Actual behavior:
There's a severe level error being thrown saying "Controls and media elements should have labels" for all references of SearchBox components in the page.

The link AX TEXT 01
Expected behavior:
All control and media elements should have labels.
I have tried the labeltext option for SearchBox component, but it only adds the placeholder text and not a label to the component whereas it's needed to use label/aria-label instead. (Ref: Audit rules - AX -TEXT 01 as can be seen that it's recommended to not use only placeholder)
If applicable, please provide a codepen repro:
