    • Severity 2 - Major

      Issue Summary

      The element is not accessible by keyboard alone and there is no conforming accessible version of the same functionality reachable from the non-conforming page.

      Element name :

      • Project
      • Key
      • Project type
      • Project lead
      • Project category

      Note : The edit element is only visible on mouse hover.

      Steps to Reproduce

      1. Navigate to the Jira dashboard page.
      2. Navigate to "Project" menu button in header section & activate it.
      3. Activate the “View all Projects ” link.
      4. Navigate to the table section where all project files are available in the “All project types - All categories” section , having table headers “Project”, “Key”, etc.

      Actual Results

      The issue on Browse projects page, while navigating with keyboard, when user navigate to “All project types - All categories”  section elements such “Project”, “Key”, etc. the elements don’t receive keyboard focus & not accessible with keyboard alone, but "Project”, “Key”, etc.  elements are clickable with mouse and also available on mouse hover.

      The “Project”, “Key”, etc.  element is marked using <th> element.

      This makes keyboard only users difficult to access the  “Project”, “Key”, etc.  table header filter elements present on the Browse projects page.

      Expected Results

      Following are the expected keyboard interactions.

      • The Interactive table header such as “Project”, “Key”, etc should receive keyboard focus.
      • The elements should get activated with enter/space keys.
      • The focus should remain on “Project”, “Key”, etc once activated and should not go to any other element.
      • When user activates the “Project”, “Key”, etc. any of the header the screen reader should announce the change in the page happened eg. "Project sorted from A to Z".
