The correct answer is

The point at which a concept is so well developed that no further data collection is necessary

Theoretical saturation is a central idea of grounded theory, developed by Glaser and Strauss (1967). In grounded theory, data collection and analysis proceed together: the researcher codes data, builds categories and uses theoretical sampling to fill out those categories.

Saturation is reached when new data no longer add new properties or dimensions to a category, and the relationships between categories are well established. At that point the concept is so well developed that no further data collection is necessary, and sampling for that category stops.

Deciding on a theory and testing it repeatedly describes deductive, hypothesis-testing research, the opposite of grounded theory, which builds theory from data. Using too many theories in data analysis is not a recognised methodological term. A state of frustration caused by using every possible statistical test is a joke definition and has nothing to do with qualitative analysis, which does not rely on statistical tests.

The point at which a concept is so well developed that no further data collection is necessary option is correct.
