--explanation--

To understand the correct answer, listen to what Sophie says: It would have caught the error early on and saved you some time.

She uses the phrase would have caught, which shows that Mark could have found the error earlier, but this didn’t happen. Here's another example:

If you had run the test suite, it would have found the missing bracket. - This means running a test suite helps you find issues early and avoid wasting time later.
