What earns each verdict

Same outcomes on every UXFix rule · how verdicts work
✓ Pass5

Either Q&A section with entries OR spec table with 5+ rows present.

Section header exists but empty.

✕ Fail29

Neither present.

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

The product page does not have a Q&A section or a real specifications table. Shoppers cannot answer their own questions before buying.

Considered purchases (electronics, appliances, tools, tech gear) live and die on the details page. When shoppers cannot find dimensions, materials, compatibility, or answers to obvious questions, they leave to research on Amazon or a competitor and often buy there instead.

That sentence is the one a failing store sees in its own UXFix report.How rules are weighted and scored

The fix

The same steps a failing store sees in its report

A pass means: Either Q&A section with entries OR spec table with 5+ rows present.

Severity
Medium
Score gain
+0.7pts
Page
Product page

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.

What our auditors say about this rule

On a considered purchase, the unanswered question is the exit. Specifications are cheaper than a support ticket and faster than an email.
