A team has a manual regression test that verifies a complex workflow. After a recent change, the workflow now includes an additional step. The test still passes but does not verify the new step. What should the team do?

Automate the test to avoid future manual updates.

Keep the test as is, since it still verifies the main workflow.

Delete the test and create a new one for the entire workflow.

Update the manual test to include the new step and verify its behavior.

A team has been using the same regression suite for several releases. They notice that the suite has a high number of tests that rarely fail and that the execution time is increasing. They want to ensure the suite remains effective and efficient. What is the best approach?

Run the suite less frequently to save time.

Keep the suite unchanged to maintain consistency across releases.

Add more tests to the suite to increase coverage.

Periodically review the regression suite and remove or relegate tests that are no longer valuable.
