Review procedure

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 1

Open the viewer using keyboard and pointer paths and inspect the accessible trigger name.

Step 2

Check initial focus, navigation between images and any instructions.

Step 3

Close the viewer with its available controls and verify focus returns to a sensible location.

Step 4

Review alternative text or adjacent descriptions for important information shown only in images.

Worked example

A product image opens a full-screen zoom viewer that has no keyboard-accessible close button.

What the reviewer finds

  • The close control is not keyboard reachable.
  • A size diagram is readable only inside the zoomed image.

Resulting record

A product image viewer test with focus and information-access findings.

Boundary: A working zoom control does not make the image's information accessible by itself.

This scenario is fictional. It illustrates a review decision, not a customer outcome or a compliance determination.
