    Actual Results

    When screen reader users navigate through combobox items of "All start dates" and "All release dates" elements it is announcing incorrect index as “0 of 1,” for every options/items present for that element.

    For example : There are 3 options/combobox items such as “Leave as is” element. When users navigate through these items using arrow keys. This combobox items are announcing as “Leave as is focus 0 of 1. 3 results available.” etc. inappropriately. As a result, if combobox items index numbers are reading incorrectly then screen reader users might not able to complete this field successfully.

    Expected Results

    The <input> of "All start dates" and "All release dates" elements should have role=”combobox” appropriately with other aria attributes such as “aria-owns”, “aria-expanded”, "data-active-option” and ”aria-activedescendant” etc. The combo box items option name with the appropriate index should be announced by a screen reader for “"Associated issue source" and "Team type" elements when the users navigate through these using arrow keys via screen reader.

    Note: Similar issues are found in the following modal dialogs:

    • In "Edit cross-project release" modal dialog for "Choose a project" combobox.
    • In "Add rinku to cross-project release" modal dialog for "Cross-project release" combobox.
