Actual Results
When users submit "Groups to add" field with incorrect input, error messages such as "Group hi could not be found. Please confirm the existence of the group with a Confluence Administrator." and on empty submissions "You must enter a group." get dynamically displayed above the form fields.
As a result, screen reader users are unaware about the occurrence of errors.
Expected Results
Apply the following changes:
- Add 'aria-describedby' attribute to the form field.
- Reference 'id' attribute value of the containner used to display the error message to 'aria-describedby' attribute.
