The problem this solves
After remediation, teams still ship new components, flows and content. Ongoing QA gives recurring evidence without pretending automated monitoring can replace manual testing.

FAQ
Is this automated monitoring?
No. Automated checks can support the process, but ongoing QA includes manual testing and technical review.
How often should QA run?
That depends on release cadence and risk. Many teams start with critical workflow checks around major releases.
Can it replace a full audit?
No. It helps maintain accessibility between deeper audits.
