Ah, the age-old question - how do we measure the effectiveness of our tests? Code Coverage is the answer, and C is the correct option. It's like a code popularity contest, and we want our tests to be the prom king or queen.

So it's not just about quantity, but quality too. Makes sense.

It's more than that, it's about how effective our tests are in catching potential defects.

I always thought code coverage was just about how much of our code is being tested.

I'm just hoping my code is like a beach body - toned and tested from head to toe. Code Coverage is the key to that, so C is the correct answer. *flexes code muscles*

This is a classic question! Code Coverage is like a fitness tracker for your code - it tells you how much of the code is getting a good workout during testing. Option C is the winner here.

Hmm, I don't think Code Coverage has anything to do with Defects or Time Spent Testing. It's all about how much of the codebase is being exercised by the tests, so C is the way to go.

Code Coverage measures the extent of the code that is executed during testing, so I'd say it measures Test Effectiveness. Option C is the correct answer.
