Why each option
After a defect is repaired, the next required step is defect repair validation to confirm the fix was implemented correctly and the issue is resolved.
Defect repair validation is the formal process of inspecting and confirming that a repaired defect has been correctly fixed. After the team member corrects the installation problem, someone must verify the repair was performed properly before work continues. This step ensures the corrected fixture meets the original acceptance criteria.
Lessons learned documentation is recorded at phase or project closure, not immediately after a single defect repair.
Corrective action is what the team member already performed by fixing the installation - it is the repair itself, not what follows it.
Preventive actions address future potential problems and are not the immediate next step after repairing an existing defect.
