      Actual Results

      The "Exclude issue types", "Exclude statuses", and "Exclude releases" expandable buttons do not have a programmatically defined expandable state. These buttons do not use an aria-expanded attribute. As a result, users of assistive technologies found it challenging to understand the functionality associated with these elements.

      Expected Results

      When elements expand or collapse a particular content, make sure that they have a programmatically defined expandable state. Use the “aria-expanded” attribute on the expandable elements and update the “true” and “false” values appropriately. Make sure that the value is set to “true” when the elements are expanded and “false” when they are collapsed.
