Actual Results
The "Branch actions" button displays a menuitems such as "Compare", "Copy branch name", and so on. Programmatically role "menu" is defined correctly but role "menuitem" is not defined. This will result in difficulty for screen reader users to access the sub-menu links within the menu.
Similar instances present in the table section> Actions column> "Branch actions".
Expected Results
Provide role "menuitem" to the options such as "Compare", "Copy branch name", and so on. Ensure that while navigating through these elements through assistive technology it should get announce with respective roles and state.
Alternatively, implement the menu functionality by using appropriate ARIA roles, states and properties. Working examples and information on implementing accessible ARIA menus can be found at https://www.w3.org/WAI/ARIA/apg/example-index/menubar/menubar-navigation.html
