Actual Results

When screen reader users navigate to the data tables on the Dashboard page using the JAWS keystroke "T" on Windows or "Control + Option + Command + T" on Mac, they observe that no accessible name is announced for the "Filter Results: Filter for AT board" and "Assigned to me" data tables.

This issue occurs because the <caption> element or the aria-label attribute, which can provide a brief description of the table, is not present for these tables.

As a result, screen reader users are unable to understand the purpose or content of the tables.

Expected Results

An accessible name should be provided for each data table.

In this case, provide accessible names such as "Filter Results: Filter for AT board" and "Assigned to me" for the respective data tables using either the <caption> element or the "aria-label" attribute.

Code Snippet 1: Using the <caption> element

<table>
  <caption>Filter Results: Filter for AT board</caption>
  <!-- table rows and cells -->
</table>

Code Snippet 2: Using the aria-label attribute

<table aria-label="Filter Results: Filter for AT board">
  <!-- table rows and cells -->
</table>

Workaround

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