Explanation:

Maintenance testing is triggered bychangesto the software or its environment, or byretirementof the software or its environment1. Therefore, the events that would represent triggers for maintenance testing are:

Upgrading the production system's database for the latest Oracle release (a change to the environment)

Retirement of a live application that no longer has business benefit (a retirement of the software)

The other events are not triggers for maintenance testing, because they are either related to the development or testing process, or do not involve any change or retirement of the software or its environment. They are:

Migrating tests from a spreadsheet to the new test management tool (a change to the testing process)

An urgent fix to a new application before its initial release to production (a change to the software in development)

Simplifying the requirements to make them easier to analyse and review (a change to the requirements in development)
