   A company is transitioning from a sequential life cycle to a scaled agile framework (SAFe) for a large product. The test process improvement team has always relied on a centralized test team and a heavyweight test management tool. They are now planning the improvement roadmap. What is the most critical adaptation they must make?

   • ADecentralize test planning and execution to align with agile teams, while using the existing tool for reporting at the program level.
   • BAdopt a purely exploratory testing approach to eliminate the need for a test management tool.
   • CReplace the heavyweight tool with a lightweight tool that only supports team-level test management.
   • DMaintain the centralized test team to ensure consistency and control across all agile teams.
