Explanation

A smoke test is a high-level test run after deployment to verify that the most critical functions work. If a critical gap is found during a smoke test, it indicates the testing plan was insufficient - it failed to cover or detect the issue before deployment. The testing plan should be revised to prevent recurrence. The communication plan (A) governs stakeholder messaging. The quality plan (B) defines quality standards broadly. The rollback plan (C) is used if the deployment must be reversed, but the question asks what should be revised, not executed.
