XMLWordPrintable

      Identical and inappropriate label "Create issue Create issue" is specified for several buttons in the main content area of the page.

      Steps to Reproduce

      1. Open the "Backlog" page.

      3. Using screen reader, navigate to the mentioned buttons.

      Actual Results

      On Backlog  page, even though the label such as "Create issue" is provided for the buttons.
      Screen reader announces "Create issue Create issue" for all the buttons in the main content area. As a result, screen reader users will not understand the purpose of the buttons effectively. 

      Expected Results

      Apply the following changes:

      • Specify the "id" attribute with a unique value to <a> element containing "More actions for {0}", "Issue Key: SSPF-2 ", etc. text.
      • Specify "aria-labelledby" attribute to <button> element containing “Create issue” text.
      • Reference both the "id" attributes values (of <a> and <button>elements) via "aria-labelledby" attribute.

      Code Example:

      <span id="one" class="field-value ghx-readonly" data-fieldname="sprintName" data-fieldvalue="Sample Sprint 5" data-maxdisplaylength="">Sample Sprint 5</span>
...
<button aria-labelledby="two one" type="button" class="aui-button aui-button-subtle" resolved="">
    <span id="two" class="aui-icon aui-icon-small aui-iconfont-add">Create issue</span> 
</button>
