The team needs to ___ an accessibility audit before the product launches to enterprise clients.
Conduct an accessibility audit is the formal, professional collocation — audits are conducted with structured methodology and documented findings. 'Run' is common in informal use; 'perform' is also acceptable; 'do an audit' is too informal for client-facing communication.
2 / 5
The WCAG violations were ___ in the sprint backlog as high-priority items.
Logged in the backlog is the standard engineering collocation — issues, bugs, and violations are 'logged' in tracking systems. 'Added' is acceptable but generic; 'placed' and 'entered' are not standard Jira/backlog vocabulary.
3 / 5
Developers should ___ screen reader compatibility when building interactive components.
Ensure screen reader compatibility is the professional accessibility collocation — it implies taking responsibility for meeting the requirement, not just checking it. 'Verify' and 'test' describe the activity; 'check' is informal. 'Ensure compatibility' is the standard in accessibility standards documents.
4 / 5
The accessibility report highlighted that several form inputs ___ proper ARIA labels.
Lacked proper ARIA labels is the natural collocation in technical audit reports — it precisely describes an absence of a required attribute. 'Were missing' is also correct; 'missed' implies a mistake was made; 'needed' focuses on requirement rather than the finding.

Before sign-off, the QA engineer must ___ all focus management flows with a keyboard.
Validate focus management flows is the most precise collocation in accessibility QA — validation implies confirming against a defined standard (WCAG). 'Test' is the underlying activity; 'verify' is close but implies confirming a known fact; 'check' is informal.
