Question 39
Domain 3: Application DevelopmentFor auditability, which artifact set is most important to retain with a high-stakes model release?
Correct answer: B
Explanation
Auditability depends on preserving the exact inputs and decision basis used at release. Retaining the "approved model and prompt versions, dataset snapshot, and scoring method used for approval" lets reviewers reconstruct what was evaluated and why it passed, which is essential for traceability and post hoc review.
Why each option is right or wrong
A. Only the top-line pass rate
A pass rate alone lacks the underlying artifacts needed to reproduce or justify the approval decision.
B. The approved model and prompt versions, dataset snapshot, and scoring method used for approval
For a high-stakes release, the audit trail must preserve the exact configuration that was evaluated so the decision can be reconstructed later: the approved model and prompt versions, the dataset snapshot, and the scoring method used for approval. Without those artifacts, a reviewer cannot verify what was actually tested or whether the release met the approval threshold at the time of sign-off, which defeats traceability and post hoc review.
C. Only the serving endpoint name
An endpoint name identifies deployment, not the evaluated model version, dataset, or approval criteria.
D. Only the cheapest vendor quote
Vendor pricing relates to procurement, not technical traceability or model release audit evidence.
