`jsx-a11y/media-has-caption` Eslint Warning for Missing Captions in Media Elements

[soobing]

Media elements such as <audio> and <video> are required to have a <track> tag for captions according to eslint jsx-a11y/media-has-caption.

I received an error stating that the <track> tag, which is a child of the <video> tag, is mandatory to have a src attribute. However, it appears that the error is resolved when there is a <track> tag child without a src attribute present.

Media elements such as <audio> and <video> must have a <track> for captions.eslint jsx-a11y/media-has-caption

Reproduce

<video></video>

Solved (actually this should not be solved)

<video><track kind="captions" /></video>

There are limits to static analysis, and the rule currently does not check any props at all - it merely ensures you have a track element as a child.

Can you elaborate on I received an error stating that the <track> tag, which is a child of the <video> tag, is mandatory to have a src attribute.? Where did this error come from?
