Angular · Middle · Question 36 of 75

Where should a "passwords must match" validator be attached?

✓Correct answer: To the FormGroup containing both fields, because it compares their values
2To each password control separately
3To the <form> element as an HTML attribute

Explanation

A group-level validator receives the group and can read both controls. The error then appears in form.errors, not in the individual controls.
