This episode covers the process of testing your theory to confirm the root cause of a problem. We explain how to perform controlled changes or simulations to verify whether the suspected cause produces or resolves the observed symptoms. Documenting the results of these tests is critical for both operational records and potential escalations.

We also discuss when to re-evaluate and return to the theory stage, such as when results are inconclusive or new information emerges. For the Cloud+ exam, you must know how to validate findings without introducing additional risks or downtime.
