Correct answer & explanation
✓
Test the solution in a staging environment first
To ensure a successful migration, the administrator should test the solution in a staging environment first (A) to validate functionality, export it as a managed solution (C) to maintain component relationships and support future upgrades, and run the solution checker (E) to identify and fix issues before migration. Deleting the development environment after export (B) is risky because it removes the source before the migration is verified. Manually recreating the solution in production (D) is error-prone and not recommended.
