Create issue : Status message is not communicated

XMLWordPrintable

      Issue Summary

      The status message indicating the successful creation of an issue is not communicated to users of assistive technologies.

      Steps to Reproduce

      1. Log in to Jira DC- https://jira.atlassian.com/secure/ConfigurePortalPages.jspa?view=favourites
      2. Select any project from the projects list.
      3. Navigate to the "Create issue" button.
      4. Fill in the required details and activate the "Create" button.
      5. Observe that a status message appears on the page.
      6. Note that this status message is not communicated to users of a screen reader.

      Screen Recording

      Actual Results

      When the "Create" button is activated, a status message such as "XYZ issue has been successfully created." is displayed on the page. However, this status message is not announced to users of screen readers. As a result, users relying on assistive technologies are unable to efficiently interact with the feedback associated with the action.

      Expected Results

      All status messages must be programmatically communicated. To achieve this, a polite live region should be used, incorporating role="status" and aria-atomic="true" to ensure that the entire message is announced to screen reader users.

      Code Snippet

      <span role="status" aria-atomic="true">XYZ issue has been successfully created.</span>
