I have used the @testSetup annotation in the past to ensure test data is available. It's another approach to consider.

I'd be careful with @isTest(seeAllData=true) - that can lead to some tricky test data issues down the line. A and C seem like the safer bets here.

Definitely, we should avoid using @isTest(seeAllData=true) to prevent test data issues.

Haha, 'without shering on the class declaration'? I think that one's a typo, folks. Let's go with A and C - can't go wrong with good old test data factories!

Hmm, I'm not sure about using @isTest(seeAllData=true) - I heard that's not a recommended practice these days. Maybe stick to the data factories or Test.loadData{}.

A and C look like good options to me. Using the Test.loadData{} method seems like the most straightforward way to get the Pricing_Structure__c records loaded for the test class.
