# Manual accessibility review checklist
|
|
|
|
Automated axe checks do not establish WCAG conformance. A human reviewer must
|
|
review all six route records in `artifacts/tests/a11y-manual/` against one
|
|
release candidate and sign them. The required scope is derived from the route
|
|
registry: `APP_HOME`, `EXAMPLES_UI`, `EXAMPLES_STATES`, `EXAMPLES_AUTH`,
|
|
`REFERENCE_RESOURCE_LIST`, and `NOT_FOUND`. Copy the template fields exactly; the
|
|
gate rejects blank identity/timestamp/signature fields, pending verdicts,
|
|
mismatched release IDs, or missing routes.
|
|
|
|
Allowed item verdicts:
|
|
|
|
- `pass`
|
|
- `not-applicable (<specific reason>)`
|
|
|
|
Required record:
|
|
|
|
```text
|
|
Status: reviewed
|
|
Route ID: APP_HOME
|
|
Release ID: <immutable release ID>
|
|
Reviewer: <human reviewer identity>
|
|
Reviewed at: <RFC 3339 timestamp>
|
|
Signature: <reviewer identity or approved signature reference>
|
|
Attestation: accepted
|
|
M1 Keyboard: pass
|
|
M2 Visible focus: pass
|
|
M3 Route focus: pass
|
|
M4 Modal focus: not-applicable (no modal on this route)
|
|
M5 Error association: not-applicable (no form error on this route)
|
|
M6 Color signal: pass
|
|
M7 Reduced motion: pass
|
|
Screen reader: pass
|
|
Notes: <observations and linked defect IDs>
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
The reviewer must verify:
|
|
|
|
- M1: every action works without a pointing device
|
|
- M2: every focused element has a visible indicator
|
|
- M3: route transitions move focus to a deterministic target
|
|
- M4: modal focus is trapped and restored, when a modal exists
|
|
- M5: errors are programmatically associated with their controls, when present
|
|
- M6: state never relies on color alone
|
|
- M7: non-essential motion is suppressed with reduced-motion preference
|
|
- Screen reader: headings, live regions, errors, and actions are announced once
|
|
|
|
`EXAMPLES_UI` requires real M4 modal and M5 field-error review; those items must
|
|
not be marked not-applicable on that route. Passing automated evidence means
|
|
only that tested pages had no critical or serious axe findings under the
|
|
recorded Chromium, Firefox, and WebKit runs.
