I think system testing is about the whole product, so C makes sense.

I’m torn between C and D. C seems right about the whole system, but D sounds familiar too, like it relates to when we update software.

I feel like option A doesn't really fit because it talks about software modules, which seems more like unit testing to me.

I remember a practice question that mentioned system testing being triggered by changes, which makes me think option D could also be relevant.

I think system testing is mostly about the overall behavior of the system, so I lean towards option C, but I'm not completely sure.
