Explanation

In software testing, configuration management ensures that all versions of the software under test (i) and the associated testware (test scripts, plans, data) are identified (i), version-controlled (ii), and tracked for changes (iv). Developing (iii) or analyzing the need for new testware (v) are development/analysis activities, not configuration management.
