CAll the expected environments and combinations

DOnly those environments readily available in the testing lab

Show Suggested Answer

Suggested Answer: C

The correct answer is C. All the expected environments and combinations.

All the expected environments and combinations

Interoperability testing should target all the expected environments and combinations that the system will interact with in the real world. This will ensure that the system can function correctly and reliably with different hardware, software, network, and external factors that may affect its communication and compatibility with other systems1.

I'm all for C. Interoperability is key, gotta make sure it works everywhere. And don't forget to test the kitchen sink too!

Testing only the highest risk environments may not cover all potential issues, so testing all expected environments is the way to go.
