Scenario analysis? Isn't that what the Ghostbusters do? I'd go with the probability and impact matrix - it's the safe choice, like wearing a hardhat to a construction site.

Hmm, I'm not sure. Sensitivity analysis could be useful too, as it can help identify the critical factors that drive the test results.

Monte Carlo simulation sounds like the way to go. It can help the team understand the range of possible outcomes and their likelihood.

I think the risk manager should consider using a probability and impact matrix. It's a classic tool for assessing risks and their potential consequences.
