These are suggested operational checks to apply to your own evidence. They are not additional legal requirements or claims that the workspace automates this entire task.
Step 2
Use a test session to observe warnings, extension controls and their keyboard access.
Step 3
Allow the session to expire and inspect the explanation and recovery behavior.
Step 4
Record which data is preserved and any unresolved requirement assessment.
Worked example
A long address entry expires without warning and the customer loses all form data after pressing continue.
What the reviewer finds

- Recovery returns the user to an empty checkout form.
