After being in operation for many years, a document management system must be decommissioned as it has reached its end of life. This system will not be replaced by any other new system. A legal obligation provides that all documents within the system must be kept for at least 20 years in a state archive.

Which of the following statements about maintenance testing for decommissioning of this system is true?

Show Suggested Answer Hide Answer
Suggested Answer: B

When a document management system is decommissioned, maintenance testing must include data migration testing to ensure that all documents are correctly transferred to a state archive, meeting legal requirements for long-term storage. This process verifies that data integrity is maintained during migration.

I recall that maintenance testing is usually about ensuring the system still functions correctly, but since this system is being decommissioned, I’m confused about what’s really needed.

I practiced a similar question where we had to consider the implications of decommissioning, and I think regression testing wouldn't apply here since there's no new system.

I'm not entirely sure, but I feel like data migration testing might be necessary since we have to keep the documents for 20 years.

I remember discussing that even if a system is decommissioned, we might still need to ensure the data is intact, so I think confirmation testing could be relevant.
