Scanning

How scanning works

Understand discovery, browser loading, document integrity, automated rules, interaction probes, and grouping.

1. Storefront verification

PixelClear first confirms that the URL is public and represents a supported Shopify or WooCommerce storefront.

2. Browser and document integrity

A real browser loads the page. PixelClear checks HTTP status, content type, final URL, document size, DOM evidence, visible text, navigation, controls, and known bot-challenge signals before running accessibility rules.

3. Representative coverage

Quick scans select a bounded set of representative surfaces such as home, product, collection, cart, and a content page. Deep scans widen page and interaction coverage.

4. Rules, probes, and grouping

PixelClear runs deterministic WCAG-tagged checks, records signals that need human review, probes supported storefront states, and groups repeated occurrences into remediation targets.
