      Actual Results

      The “Welcome to Jira cloud”, “Assigned to you”, “Watching” and so on, text is not semantically declared as headings. As a result, screen reader users found it difficult to understand the page’s content structure.

      Expected Results

      When any element titles or categorizes any content, it should semantically be declared as a heading. Mark up the above text using the appropriate HTML heading markup. As well, use headings with appropriate heading levels. Make sure that the heading levels correctly communicate the page's structure, such as the parent-child relationship between the headings.
