You can testify against her if you know for sure, and she can testify in her defense, if you lie, the 3rd or 4th time you swear I forget the number, the curse of God will be upon you, and if she lies and swears by God, then the curse of God will be on her.

And if she is honest and testifies against herself, then the consequence is lashing, 70 lashes. But I believe such laws are only meant when there is a leader from God implementing government, otherwise, like Jesus says, let the person who hasn't sinned cast the first stone sort of thing.... 

If you know now without a present leader to implement the laws of God only meant for a pure leader from God to implement, just get divorced.

We may need to go back to barbaric roots in some fields. Perhaps this is why the Prophet is reported to have said "I eat with my hands and lick my fingers, who doesn't like my way, is not from me" (I don't know how accurate the hadith is but it's part of long seemingly sincere advice to Abu Dhar).

We don't have to eat with out hands or lick our fingers, but being disgusted at it, perhaps, we are to arrogant and leaving our barbarian roots too much, that we belittle too many humans of the past.
