In a scenario where it's near impossible / too difficult for me to guarantee that there will be no errors, how do I answer that question without making my clients/supervisors anxious?

You can never guarantee that there will be no errors. Based on the level of testing that has been done, you should have a general idea.



If it was tested thoroughly, you can tell them something like:




While it is impossible to say there are no errors, I am confident in
the testing that was done. At this point in time, I have no reason
to believe there are any more errors.




On the flip side, if there was not enough testing done, you can't really feel confident at all and you should be honest about that and tell them.
