   A company using a V-model life cycle for a regulated medical device project wants to improve its test process. The improvement team proposes introducing exploratory testing sessions and removing formal test documentation to speed up delivery. What is the most appropriate action for the improvement team?

   • AAdopt exploratory testing but keep formal documentation, integrating it as a supplementary technique within the existing phase-gate structure.
   • BReject the proposal and maintain the existing documentation-heavy process unchanged.
   • CPilot the changes on a non-regulated internal tool project first to gather data before applying them to the medical device project.
   • DReplace the V-model with an agile life cycle to enable the proposed changes.

   How does iterative feedback contribute to continuous improvement in agile testing?

   • AIt restricts changes to the test process until the end of the project
   • BIt requires all improvements to be approved by external auditors
   • CIt allows the team to adjust testing practices based on lessons learned from each iteration
   • DIt eliminates the need for any formal test planning
