Which scenario best illustrates the use of a configuration management tool?

A script automatically installs and configures the same software on hundreds of servers.

A developer uses a debugger to step through code.

A developer manually installs software on each server.

A team uses a shared spreadsheet to track server IP addresses.

What is Infrastructure as Code (IaC)?

Managing and provisioning infrastructure through machine-readable definition files.

Writing documentation for infrastructure components.

Using a graphical tool to design network diagrams.

Manually configuring servers using a web interface.

A product owner, developers, and testers are having difficulty agreeing on what features to build because requirements are often ambiguous. They want a practice that uses concrete examples and natural language to define expected behavior and foster collaboration. Which practice should they adopt?

Behavior-driven development (BDD)

What is a key benefit of using Infrastructure as Code?

It eliminates the need for version control.
