Key Points for Accessibility

If you use the JIRA macro to display a list of issues or a count of issues, the result is accessible to people with disabilities. Here is an example of each:

  • A JIRA macro displaying a count of issues:  Getting issues...
  • A JIRA macro displaying a list of issues: 

    Key Summary Status
    Loading...
    Refresh

However, if you use the JIRA macro to display a single issue, the result has an icon without alt text, so it is not accessible to people with disabilities. Here is an example:

Lexsystest-31 Create script to pull NCI's base version of CentOS

To remain compliant with the Section 508 mandate, you have the following options:

  • Display a single JIRA issue as a simple hyperlink, as described in Using the JIRA Shortcut, and as shown here: LEXSYSTEST-31.
  • Use the JIRA Issues macro to display a count or list of issues, as shown above. 
  • No labels
