Explanation:

The process of hypothesis testing typically involves the following steps:

1. Stating the hypotheses (null and alternative).
2. Choosing a sample and collecting data.
3. Assessment of evidence (calculating the test - statistic and p - value).
4. Conclusion (rejecting or failing to reject the null hypothesis).

So, the third step is the assessment of evidence.

Answer:

D. Assessment of evidence
