Wait, fixing field failures isn't a detection cost? That's surprising!

I’m leaning towards C too, but I wonder if training developers could also be considered a detection cost since it helps them find issues earlier.

I practiced a question like this, and I feel like fixing field failures is more about correction than detection.

I think cost of detection is related to identifying defects, so maybe it's C? Re-running a test case sounds like it fits that definition.

I've got it! The answer has to be C. Re-running a test case to verify a fix is a classic example of a detection cost, since you're checking to see if the issue has been resolved.

Okay, let me try to break this down. Detection costs are related to finding and identifying defects, so I'm guessing the answer has to do with testing activities. I'll eliminate the options that don't seem to fit that criteria.
