What does "fail" mean to you?

I undertand it to mean that whatever the code does is different to
what you expect.  Without indicating what you expect, anyone else may
well say "the code does exactly what *I* expect, therefore it
succeeds".

Did you epxect a visual presentation indicating a link?  An A element
without an href value is not a link and (probably) by default its
content won't be given a different visual representation to
surrounding content.

An A elemet with neither href or name attribute is roughly equivalent
a span element.
