Phase 5: Retest

Phase 5: Retest

Verify accessibility fixes and produce a conformance statement.

Purpose

The Retest phase verifies that fixes are effective, checks for regressions, and produces a formal WCAG conformance statement.

Usage

/accessibility:retest <target>

Example:

/accessibility:retest checkout-flow

Prerequisites

Requires .metapowers/accessibility/<target>/04-remediate.md from the Remediate phase. Use --skip-checks to bypass.

What It Does

Re-evaluates each fixed issue to verify resolution
Runs regression checks across all WCAG criteria
Verifies keyboard navigation flow end-to-end
Checks for new issues introduced by fixes
Produces a formal conformance statement
Writes results to .metapowers/accessibility/<target>/05-retest.md

Output

Creates .metapowers/accessibility/<target>/05-retest.md containing:

Verification results per issue
Regression check findings
Formal WCAG conformance declaration
Remaining known issues (if any)
Maintenance and monitoring recommendations

Phase 4: Remediate

Fix accessibility issues with guided code changes following WCAG criteria.
