A test manager is tracking the progress of a test phase using a burn-down chart. The chart shows that the team is completing fewer test cases per day than planned. The project has a fixed release date. What is the most appropriate action?

Immediately extend the release date to allow more time.

Investigate the cause of the lower velocity and adjust the plan or resources accordingly.

Ignore the trend because the burn-down chart is only an estimate.

Ask the team to work faster without changing the plan.
