Correct answer: Arrange training for team members on the tool..
Why this is the answer
The project manager should arrange training for team members on the tool because the team has identified a solution to a bottleneck. Providing training empowers the team to implement the solution, directly addressing the testing backlog and improving project flow. This aligns with a project manager's role in facilitating team problem-solving and removing impediments. Escalating to the product owner is premature since the team has already found a potential solution; the product owner's focus is typically on product value and prioritization, not operational bottlenecks unless they impact scope or schedule significantly. Reducing the testing scope is a drastic measure that could compromise quality and is not the first step when a solution is available. Adding developers might not resolve a testing bottleneck if the issue is with the testing process or tools, not a lack of development capacity.
