Which option correctly pairs test automation design principles and patterns with their characteristics?

The mappings correspond directly to the design principles and patterns defined in the CTAL-TAE syllabus. The Facade pattern hides implementation details and exposes only what testers require when creating tests. The Page Object Model encapsulates page-specific locators in a class so changes to the SUT structure generally require updating the locator in one place. SOLID includes the Liskov Substitution Principle, under which components should be substitutable without adversely affecting correct behavior. The Flow Model extends the Page Object Model by introducing an additional facade that stores reusable user actions interacting with page objects. These patterns improve abstraction, maintainability, readability, reuse, and scalability of automation code. Therefore, the correct mapping is 1-A, 2-D, 3-B, and 4-C.
