To answer this question, we need to match the activity descriptions with the corresponding test management terms. Let's go through each option to see which one is the best pairing:
Option A) v-3, w-2, x-1, y-5, z-4
- Test control (v) is paired with the re-allocation of resources when tests overrun (3) - Incorrect
- Test monitoring (w) is paired with the maintenance of the record of test results (2) - Correct
- Test estimation (x) is paired with the calculation of required test resources (1) - Incorrect
- Incident management (y) is paired with the tracking of anomalous test results (5) - Incorrect
- Configuration control (z) is paired with the report on deviation from the test plan (4) - Incorrect
Option B) v-2, w-5, x-1, y-4, z-3
- Test control (v) is paired with the tracking of anomalous test results (5) - Incorrect
- Test monitoring (w) is paired with the report on deviation from the test plan (4) - Incorrect
- Test estimation (x) is paired with the calculation of required test resources (1) - Correct
- Incident management (y) is paired with the maintenance of the record of test results (2) - Incorrect
- Configuration control (z) is paired with the re-allocation of resources when tests overrun (3) - Incorrect
Option C) v-3, w-4, x-1, y-5, z-2
- Test control (v) is paired with the re-allocation of resources when tests overrun (3) - Correct
- Test monitoring (w) is paired with the report on deviation from the test plan (4) - Correct
- Test estimation (x) is paired with the calculation of required test resources (1) - Correct
- Incident management (y) is paired with the tracking of anomalous test results (5) - Correct
- Configuration control (z) is paired with the maintenance of the record of test results (2) - Correct
Option D) v-2, w-1, x-4, y-3, z-5
- Test control (v) is paired with the maintenance of the record of test results (2) - Correct
- Test monitoring (w) is paired with the calculation of required test resources (1) - Incorrect
- Test estimation (x) is paired with the report on deviation from the test plan (4) - Incorrect
- Incident management (y) is paired with the re-allocation of resources when tests overrun (3) - Incorrect
- Configuration control (z) is paired with the tracking of anomalous test results (5) - Incorrect
The best pairing of the two sets is Option C, where:
- v (test control) is paired with 3 (re-allocation of resources when tests overrun)
- w (test monitoring) is paired with 4 (report on deviation from the test plan)
- x (test estimation) is paired with 1 (calculation of required test resources)
- y (incident management) is paired with 5 (tracking of anomalous test results)
- z (configuration control) is paired with 2 (maintenance of record of test results)
Therefore, the correct answer is Option C.
