I'm just hoping the test basis wasn't written in Comic Sans. That would be a defect in itself!

Wait, the author made errors? I thought they were supposed to be perfect! Time to update my resume - 'Professional Defect Discoverer' has a nice ring to it.

D seems like a cop-out answer. The author may have made errors, but that's not the primary reason for discovering defects through test analysis and design.

C is tempting, but the cost of fixing a defect isn't the main reason for discovering them early. That's more of a secondary benefit.

I disagree with B. Developers writing test cases doesn't necessarily mean defects will be discovered. That's more about code coverage.

I'm not sure, but I think it's A because we need information from the test basis to find defects.

The correct answer is A. Testers extract information from the test basis to discover defects during analysis and design. It's a fundamental part of the test process.
