View Type in Element Accessibility Label

Description
Avoid including the control type name in the accessibility label of UI elements. Screen readers typically announce the type of UI controls based on their built-in or user-defined traits, making the repetition of the control type in the label unnecessary and potentially verbose.
How to fix
- Ensure that accessibility label defined does not contain information about the type of the view. Assistive technologies automatically convey the element’s type and current state alongside its accessible name.
