The attributes that would be the most effective to determine WHEN the incident should be fixed and HOW MUCH effort might be required to apply the fix are the priority (to fix), severity (impact on the system), expected results, actual results, and failing software function. The priority will indicate when the incident should be fixed, while the severity, expected results, actual results, and failing software function will indicate how much effort might be required to apply the fix. The date raised and tester name may be important for tracking and assigning responsibility, but they are not directly related to determining the timing or effort of the fix. Tester recommendations may be helpful for future testing, but they do not provide crucial information for fixing the current issue. Thus, option C is the best choice.
