The time to execute tests might be useful, but I feel like the number of tests needing maintenance is more directly related to the effort required.

Code coverage seems important, but I wonder if it really reflects the effort involved in maintaining tests.

I think we practiced a question similar to this, and I recall that tracking the number of tests requiring maintenance could really highlight the effort needed for each release.

I remember discussing the importance of maintenance metrics, but I'm not sure if it's the number of tests needing updates or something else.

I'm feeling pretty confident about this one. I think the best answer is D - the operational techniques and activities used to fulfill quality requirements.

Hmm, I'm a bit unsure about this one. The options seem similar, so I'll need to really think through the differences between the admin sections to determine the right place to configure the Reporting Engine exclusion.

I think risk stratification is mainly about assessing disease severity, but I'm not completely sure how that compares to prognosis.
