BCS Exam TM12 Topic 9 Question 85 Discussion

Actual exam question for BCS's TM12 exam
Question #: 85
Topic #: 9
[All TM12 Questions]

Assume you are the Test Manager for a new software release of an e-commerce application.

The server farm consists of six servers providing different capabilities. Each capability is provided through a set of web services.

The requirements specification document contains several SLAs (Service Level Agreements) like the following:

SLA-001: 99.5 percent of all transactions shall have a response time less than five seconds under a load of up-to 5000 concurrent users

The main objective is to assure that all the SLAs specified in the requirements specification document will be met before system release. You decide to apply a risk-based testing strategy and an early risk analysis confirms that performance is high risk. You can count on a well-written requirements specification and on a model of the system behavior under various load levels produced by the system architect.

Which of the following test activities would you expect to be the less important ones to achieve the test objectives in this scenario?

Number of correct responses: 1

I bet the architects are just waiting for us to find all the performance issues. It's like they're running a secret performance test of their own - the 'let's-see-how-many-bugs-the-testers-can-find' test.

Static performance testing by reviewing the architectural model? That's like trying to predict the weather by staring at a map. Let's get our hands dirty with some real-world testing!

Definitely, system performance testing is the way to go. We need to put the whole system under load and see if it holds up.

Monitoring the SLAs after release is important, but it won't help us achieve the test objectives before the system is released.

I disagree, static performance testing is less important as we already have a model of the system behavior.

Performing unit performance testing for each web service seems like a waste of time. We need to focus on system-level performance testing to verify the SLAs.
