What earns each verdict

Same outcomes on every UXFix rule · how verdicts work
✓ Pass2

All personal-info fields have correct autocomplete values.

~ Partial0

Some fields correctly attributed.

✕ Fail35

autocomplete missing or set to 'off'.

not assessable is recorded when the rule applied but the store could not be judged on it (bot protection, a region lock, a step we could not reach), and not applicable when the store has nothing for the rule to judge. Those stores are left out of every number on this page, never guessed. Why we do that
Why it matters

Personal-info fields are missing correct `autocomplete` attributes, or one is set to `autocomplete="off"`. Password managers and browser autofill do not work smoothly.

WCAG 2.2 requires autocomplete on personal-info fields for accessibility. Beyond compliance, correct autocomplete makes checkout a 2-tap experience for returning buyers, huge for mobile conversion.

The fix

The same steps a failing store sees in its report

A pass means: All personal-info fields have correct autocomplete values.

Severity
Medium
Score gain
+1.0pts
Page
Checkout

Score gain is roughly what a fail-to-pass change adds; rules that could not be judged are left out, which can move it a little. Re-run a free audit after the change ships to confirm the verdict moved.

Checklist for the pass
0 of 3

Tick each step as you ship it. The audit judges the live store, so re-run it once all of them are done.

Every store that fails this rule

The 35 audited stores that fail Autocomplete attributes set correctly (given-name, family-name, cc-number, etc.), with each store's published score and the day it was audited.
