Test Group/Test Category

1323—Browser Compatibility/Internet Explorer 11
1423—Browser Compatibility/Microsoft Edge

Severity

Warning

Background

Since Windows Internet Explorer 11 and Microsoft Edge, Microsoft has introduced pointer events with vendor prefixes as a replacement of World Wide Web Consortium (W3C) Pointer Events. With Internet Explorer 11 and Microsoft Edge, the Microsoft prefixed versions of pointer events and Application Programming Interfaces (APIs) are no longer supported and might be removed in future releases.

Resolution

The web application should be re-engineered to use technologies other than Microsoft prefixed versions of pointer events and APIs.
