- Check that multiple options has appeared on the screen.

Screenshot
Actual Results
The current state is not programmatically defined for the currently active “Summary” link.
As a result, screen reader users will not be aware of the currently active state of the link.
Expected Results
Ensure that the current state of the active link is defined using the "aria-current" attribute with an appropriate token value.
Apply the following changes:
- Add the aria-current="page" attribute to <a> element of the link.
- Ensure that the "aria-current" attribute is updated as per user interaction using scripting.
Code Snippet
<a class="aui-nav-item" aria-current="page" id="up_user-profile-summary-panel_a" href="/secure/ViewProfile.jspa?selectedTab=jira.user.profile.panels:user-profile-summary-panel" title="Summary">Summary</a>
Workaround
Currently there is no known workaround for this behavior. A workaround will be added here when available
