An automation team is using a test data management approach where test data is created and destroyed within each test run. However, some tests require data that persists across runs. What risk does this situation introduce?

The test environment will run out of disk space because data is not cleaned up.

The test scripts will become longer because they need to create data each time.

The automation tool will not be able to generate reports because data is missing.

Tests may fail intermittently due to missing or inconsistent data, leading to unreliable results.
