When developing test scope, which recommendation should be followed?
  1. Test the entire BCP immediately to determine outages and then focus on those outages with subsequent tests
  2. Pick the most likely aspects of the BCP to fail and test those first
  3. Begin the testing with small, simple tests and then based on the results of those tests, increase scope accordingly
  4. Testing should be randomized to provide accurate results
Explanation
Answer: C - The best method for designing test scope is to start with smaller tests (such as testing a sub-system) and then work your way up to a more full-scale test. If you start with larger scale testing, it can often be overwhelming and will not provide actionable results that can be used to improve the Business Continuity Plan.

Key Takeaway: Testing smaller portions of the Business Continuity Plan one at a time will provide concrete, actionable results which can then be used to improve the BCP. After each individual portion of the BCP is tested, then you should progress to larger scale testing to ensure that the different aspects of the BCP integrate well together.
