''Testing will only use manual tests. Due to the short period of time for test execution, the following activities will be performed in parallel with test execution: Test planning, test analysis and test design.

Basic metrics will be taken for test effort (i.e. person-hours), test cases executed (passed/failed), and incidents (no more metrics, such as code coverage, will be collected).'' In the system test plan, no deviations from the test strategy are described. Based only on the given information, which of the following statements is true?

Ah, the old 'let's just wing it' approach. I bet the project manager is high-fiving themselves right now. What could possibly go wrong?

Hold up, they're not even gonna collect basic metrics? How are they supposed to measure the effectiveness of their testing? This is a comedy of errors.

Parallel test activities? That's a recipe for disaster! They're trying to cram too much into the short test period. I've got a bad feeling about this.

The approach seems to focus solely on manual testing and neglect critical metrics like code coverage. This seems inconsistent with a risk-based and regression-averse strategy.
