      Actual Results

      The accessible names are missing for the "Summary", "Estimate" and "Send to" form fields in the "Split issue" modal. 

      As a result, the screen reader users might not be able to understand the purpose of these form fields.

      Expected Results

      Make sure that the form fields have accessible names. 

      Apply following changes: 

      • Provide id="" with attribute with unique values to the "Summary", "Estimate" and "Send to" column headers. 
      • Provide aria-labelledby="" attributes on the form field below these column headers. 
      • Refer value of the id="" attributes of the column header to the respective aria-labelledby="" attributes. 
      • If this is not possible, then use the aria-label="" attribute to provide accessible name to these form controls. 
      <th id="a1>Summary</th>
      ...
      <input aria-labelledby="a1" ....>

      Workaround

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