Based on the progress to date, system testing is projected to take three weeks longer than planned. If this happens, user acceptance testing will have to start three weeks late, and the project will not complete on the planned finish date. The customer scheduled the user acceptance testing participants weeks in advance. What is the best course of action?

A. Explain to the test team that the system test must end on the scheduled date, and they are accountable for the accuracy of the testing results.

B. Meet with the test team to determine the cause of the delay.

If you determine that there are not enough testers to complete all of the scenarios in the time allotted, work with the sponsor to secure additional testers to complete the system test as planned.

C. Submit the change request to the CCB and, if it's approved, baseline the schedule again.

D. Escalate the issue of the system test delay to the sponsor and let them decide what action to take.
