The task

Review the task and its states.

A storefront can look polished while a shopper cannot select a variant, understand an error or return from a cart drawer with the keyboard.

Example review scope

Journey
Product selection → cart → checkout handoff
Theme changes
Labels, focus, controls and dynamic updates
Dependencies
App widgets and hosted checkout reviewed separately

Reproduction steps, repair and retest record

Designed around the next step.

01

Follow a shopping task

Review the selected product, variant and cart states rather than treating a homepage scan as the whole store.

02

Repair the theme code

Use appropriate controls and labels, visible focus and deliberate handling of updates. Confirm the change survives the theme’s actual behavior.

03

Separate what we can control

Identify issues owned by the theme, apps or hosted checkout. Agree access and responsibility before promising a repair.

Control pattern · local demonstration

A variant change you can follow.

Choose a size and add it to the sample cart using the keyboard. The selected item stays visible and the cart update is announced.

This independent HTML example demonstrates the interaction. Theme, app and checkout behavior must be retested in the actual store.

Sample cart is empty.

What’s included.

  • An agreed set of templates and shopping states.
  • A prioritized issue list with reproduction steps.
  • Theme changes in a preview copy, followed by task retesting.
  • A handover of completed repairs and external dependencies.

Before we begin.

Access and scope

We need the theme version, representative products and a safe preview environment. App and checkout changes depend on the available platform controls.

A documented handover

The handover records the templates and states we tested, plus any unresolved theme, app or checkout issues.
