A11Y P4.1: Run accessibility verification on representative pages before release #5548

@accesswatch

Description

@accesswatch

Summary

Run the agreed accessibility verification on representative pages so release decisions are based on rendered behavior, not source review alone.

Why this matters to users

Users do not benefit from code that looks correct in review but fails in the browser. This verification pass is what turns accessibility work from a best effort into a release-quality outcome.

Outcome we want

A release-readiness checkpoint that confirms high-risk user journeys work on representative pages with both automated and manual verification.

Scope

  • Automated checks on the representative page matrix
  • Keyboard-only verification
  • Screen-reader verification for high-risk flows
  • Release summary of unresolved known risks

Out of scope

  • Net-new remediation work that belongs in earlier phases

Conditions of satisfaction

  • Automated checks pass on the agreed representative page matrix.
  • Keyboard-only verification passes on the agreed representative page matrix.
  • NVDA and VoiceOver checks are complete for high-risk flows.
  • Remaining known risks are documented before release.
