Code Review: SMB Restart Dialog Improvements

Great work on improving the SMB restart dialog experience! 🎉 The changes effectively address the need for clearer messaging about why and when to restart the SMB service. The implementation is clean, well-tested, and follows Angular best practices.

Positive aspects

The PR successfully consolidates logic by moving restart-related functionality into the dialog component, reducing complexity in the parent SMB form component (77 fewer lines!). The new expandable "Learn more" section provides excellent user education without cluttering the initial dialog view. Test coverage is comprehensive with proper use of harnesses and accessibility attributes.

Areas for improvement

1. Accessibility: Keyboard navigation for "Learn more" link

The "Learn more" link uses role="button" and handles keydown.enter, but it's missing keydown.space handling. Buttons should respond to both Enter and Space keys per WCAG guidelines.

src/app/pages/sharing/smb/smb-form/restart-smb-dialog/restart-smb-dialog.component.html:13-14

// Missing keydown.space handler
(keydown.enter)="toggleLearnMore()"

Suggestion: Add space key handling:

(keydown.enter)="toggleLearnMore()"
(keydown.space)="$event.preventDefault(); toggleLearnMore()"

The preventDefault() is important to prevent page scrolling.

2. Test: Add keyboard space bar test

While there's a test for Enter key (line 97), there should also be a test for the Space bar to match the suggested accessibility improvement.

src/app/pages/sharing/smb/smb-form/restart-smb-dialog/restart-smb-dialog.component.spec.ts:97-104

3. Helptext organization consideration

The helptext file grew by 9 new translation keys (lines 244-257). While this is fine, consider whether these detailed explanations might be better suited as documentation links rather than inline text, especially since they're hidden by default in the "Learn more" section. This is a minor point - the current approach works well.

Testing verification

The test coverage is excellent:

• ✅ Dialog rendering and content display
• ✅ Button presence and functionality
• ✅ Learn more expand/collapse with proper ARIA attributes
• ✅ Icon state changes (chevron up/down)
• ✅ Enter key navigation
• ✅ Decline path testing in parent component

Overall assessment

This is a solid, well-implemented improvement that enhances user experience with better guidance on SMB service restarts! 👍
