Testing Fundamentals - Non-Functional Testing

Consider this pseudo-code for a stress test:

for users in range(1000, 1100):
    simulate_login(users)
    simulate_data_request(users)
    check_response_time(users)

What is the main purpose of increasing users from 1000 to 1099 in this test?

ATo check if the system crashes at 1000 users

BTo verify system functionality for exactly 1000 users

CTo test system behavior under gradually increasing load

DTo test only the login feature repeatedly

Step-by-Step Solution

Solution:

Step 1: Analyze the loop range and actions
The loop increases user count from 1000 to 1099, simulating login and data requests for each user count, then checking response time.
Step 2: Understand the test goal
This gradual increase tests how the system handles increasing load, which is typical in stress testing to find breaking points or performance degradation.
Final Answer:
To test system behavior under gradually increasing load -> Option C
Quick Check:
Increasing users = increasing load [OK]

Quick Trick: Increasing users means testing load growth [OK]
