D Correct answer
Explanation

Testing should be stopped based on risk assessment for the system being tested, not simply because all tests are done, time is up, or faults are fixed. Risk-based testing considers the cost of remaining defects versus the cost of additional testing. Even with all planned tests run, high-risk areas may need more testing.
