   An Agile team is using a task tracking tool to manage testing tasks. The testers are complaining that the tool is too rigid and does not allow them to easily capture exploratory testing notes or link them to specific user stories. The team wants to maintain traceability without sacrificing the flexibility of exploratory testing. What is the best approach?

   • AForce testers to create a formal test case for every exploratory test they perform.
   • BUse the task tracking tool to create a 'testing task' linked to the user story, and attach exploratory session notes and findings to that task.
   • CAbandon the task tracking tool for exploratory testing and only use it for scripted tests.
   • DRequire testers to write all exploratory testing notes in a separate document and not link them to the tracking tool.
