      We are using Jenkins for our GUI.  Our accessibility guidelines state the following:

       The human language of each passage or phrase in the content should be programmatically determined except for proper names, technical terms, words of indeterminate language, and words or phrases that have become part of the vernacular of the immediately surrounding text.

      The default human language of each Web page or document or software can be programmatically determined.

      The fix for this issue found is to add "lang" attribute to <html> tag which will specify the default language of the page. Kindly add the "lang" attribute to <html> tag.
