A change is being implemented on a project, and while in testing, it becomes clear that the change cannot be finalized due to the severe impact it would have on other critical systems. Which of the following should the team consult to determine which actions to take?
A. Incident response plan
B. Regression plan
C. Progress plan
D. Business continuity plan
Correct answer should be B, Regression plan.
From the 2nd Ed study guide “Evaluating the impacts of the change request may include what CompTIA calls a regression plan. You can think of this as the ability to reverse changes or back out the changes and revert to the previous state. Information technology projects often have a rollback plan (or reverse-changes plan). If the change does not perform as expected, you can go back to the previously known, working state”.
