Definitely C. Executing scripted tests upfront to address the risks, and then sprinkling in some exploratory sessions to keep things interesting. This guy's got it all figured out!

Hmm, I'm torn between C and D. Both seem to incorporate the key elements, but C feels a bit more well-rounded. I guess I'd have to go with C as the best fit.

I agree, C is the way to go. Covering the identified risks with scripted tests and then supplementing with exploratory sessions - that's a solid plan.
