hard📝 Application Q15 of 15
Step-by-Step Solution
Solution:
Step 1: Understand goal to find max capacity before response time limit
This requires increasing load step-by-step and measuring response time.Step 2: Evaluate options for best method
Gradually increase simulated users while measuring response time until it exceeds 3 seconds describes gradual increase and measurement, which fits load testing best. Other options either test fixed load, ignore response time, or test UI manually, which do not meet goal.Final Answer:
Gradually increase simulated users while measuring response time until it exceeds 3 seconds -> Option BQuick Check:
Increase load + measure response time = find max capacity [OK]
Quick Trick: Increase users stepwise, watch response time limit [OK]
Common Mistakes:
- Testing only fixed large user count
- Ignoring response time in load tests
- Relying on manual UI checks for load testing
