Issue Summary

Actual Results

When the "Split" button is activated by keeping the mandatory fields empty, the error message is announced for the screne reader users. However, the focus remains on the "Split" button rather than moving on the first form field with the error in the "Split issue" modal modal. 

Due to this, the keyboard and screen reader users might feel disoriented.

Expected Results

Make sure that focus is moved at the logical element. In this case, make sure that the focus is moved at the first form field with error on activating the "Split" button. This can be achieved by using the javascript focus() method.  

Workaround

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