### Why is this important?
Grouping related radio buttons and checkboxes enables assistive technology to convey the group relationship to users (e.g., "group of 5 radio buttons").
<!-- This is where the code snippet is injected -->
<div id="locSnippet"></div>
### What to do
* Group related controls of the same type by enclosing them within a `<fieldset>` element
* **Or**, group related radio buttons by using `role="radiogroup"`
* **Or**, group related checkboxes by using `role="group"`
* **Or**, disassociate unrelated controls or controls of different types by using different `name` attribute values
* **Or**, if the controls already have unique `name` attribute values and are in a data table, make sure the table is marked up using `<table>` or has a role of `"grid"` or `"table"`
