An app requires two-factor authentication, meaning that the user needs to provide a password and enter a code that is sent to their phone to log in. The developer wants to keep this two-factor authentication in place after the app is launched, but it makes testing the app very time-consuming. What is the BEST solution to this problem?

Only require one form of authentication for app users.
Comment out the code implementing the authentication during the test.
Write a script to deactivate the authentication after a user logs in

The best solution to this problem would be to write a script to deactivate the authentication after a user logs in. This way, the developer can still ensure that the two-factor authentication is working properly during testing, but can easily bypass it for subsequent logins. This solution strikes a balance between the security provided by two-factor authentication and the efficiency of testing the app.
