Representative production case — not client work

Accessibility Regression Gate for Releases

PRODUCTION RECORD

Specific enough to inspect.

Timeline

6 simulated release cycles

Stack

WordPress/JS component release fixture

Scope

12 critical components across 6 versioned releases

Verification

Baseline comparison, keyboard smoke checks, semantic assertions, regression status and release gate

CHALLENGE

What was wrong

The agency had no stable baseline. Regressions appeared between releases, ticket acceptance was inconsistent and the client-facing status was always reconstructed manually.


Open monitoring BEFORE


Open release gate RESULT

HOW WE WORKED

From finding to evidence

Define 12 critical components and acceptance checks

Create baseline v1.0

Run the same checks against six simulated releases

Record regressions by version and owner

Retest fixed regressions

Publish one client-ready release status

White-label arrangement

The agency owns the client relationship, timeline and final presentation. SYNTHESIS owns the agreed specialist production and verification. Report branding and client-contact boundaries are agreed before work starts.
