      Actual Results

      Role and state is not defined for the interactive elements such as "All", "Comments", "Work log" and so on in the main content area. This made it difficult for screen reader users to access the functionality associated with it.

      Expected Results

      Ensure that the interactive navigation elements are programmatically identified as links.
      In this scenario:

      • Ensure that "href" attribute is used in <a> element.
      • Provide aria-selected="true" attribute to the selected link. Make sure that it should changes on user interaction

      Code Snippet

      <a href="#" aria-selected="true" tabindex="0">Comments</a>

      Workaround

      Currently there is no known workaround for this behavior. A workaround will be added here when available
