If time constraints prevent a full evaluation, what approach should be described in the report?

• A. That a sampling approach was used
• B. A full evaluation of all content
• C. The test results were not recorded
• D. The site was deemed accessible

Answer: (A)

When time is tight, the report should describe the sampling approach used to cover the evaluation. Explain what content or components were included in the sample, how those items were selected (for example, representative sections, risk-based focus, or random sampling), how many pages or features were tested, what tools and criteria were used, and the limitations of this approach. Describing the sampling method makes the scope transparent and helps readers understand what was actually evaluated and what remains untested, without giving a false impression of complete coverage. It also shows the evaluation was planned and executed carefully rather than left incomplete. The other options don’t fit because claiming a full evaluation would be misleading under time constraints, not recording results ignores what was learned, and declaring the site accessible is a conclusion, not a description of the method used.
