Assume you have some data related to confirmation testing during system testing of a past
project.
In that project 240 bug reports have been opened once, 80 were opened twice, 10 were opened
three times and no bug reports have been opened more than three times.
You estimate that a bug report, which has failed its confirmation test, costs, on average, 3 personhours.
Which of the following statements correctly describe the value of these confirmatory testing
activities based on cost of quality?

A.
300 person-hours have been spent on the project during the system testing phase, because of
the failed confirmation tests and this cost belongs to the costs of internal failure

B.
340 person-hours have been spent on the project during the system testing phase, because of
the failed confirmation tests and this cost belongs to the costs of external failure

C.
340 person-hours have been spent on the project during the system testing phase, because of
the failed confirmation tests and this cost belongs to the costs of internal failure

D.
300 person-hours have been spent on the project during the system testing phase, because of
the failed confirmation tests and this cost belongs to the costs of detection
