Actual Results

The instruction "Sub-tasks will be moved together with their parent issues." is not associated with the form field "Move open issues to".

As a result, screen reader users might miss out on important instructions.

Expected Results

The screen reader should announce the instruction along with label text.

Apply the following changes:

• Add the "aria-describedby" attribute to the form field.

• Reference the "id" value of the element used to display the instruction text in the "aria-describedby" attribute.

Code Example:

<input aria-describedby="one" autocomplete="off" role="combobox" aria-autocomplete="list" aria-expanded="false" class="text aui-ss-field ajs-dirty-warning-exempt" id="ghx-sprint-select-field" type="text" aria-live="polite" data-lpignore="true" aria-label="Move open issues to:" aria-controls="ghx-sprint-select-suggestions">
...
<p id="one" class="ghx-description">Sub-tasks will be moved together with their parent issues.</p>

Workaround

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