iSQI CTFL-PT Exam - Topic 5 Question 30 Discussion

You have been asked to test the performance of a software and system update to a North American mobile trivia quiz game application. The quiz app is available on major app stores serving English-speaking users. The number of concurrent users planned for is 5 million. Winning quiz participants are promised a share of an allocated cash prize Once participants start playing, their quiz sessions must not be lost especially if all previous questions were answered correctly. The application owner wants to ensure that 99% of quiz sessions are maintained (up to 4.95 million sessions) until the last answer has been successfully recorded

Before your team begins testing, the team needs to present the performance test plan to technical stakeholders

Which of the following sets of plan attributes would you recommend be included in this presentation?

i. Sales has indicated that quiz events for Sponsor A offering $65,000. Sponsor B offering $45,500. Sponsor C offering $25,000

will be taking place during the first week of performance testing.

ii. Simultaneous session tests are focused on the backend. and are not end-to-end. Variability in user behavior, mobile devices and mobile communications introduces session drop opportunities outside application control. Using load generators located

in 5 high availability data centers in North America will ensure session drops are most likely caused by application issues, thus allowing us to isolate the root cause of any concurrency issues that arise

iii. Test scripts based on replaying recorded communication will take 30 hours each to write and test due to the extensive parameterization required to

respond to quiz questions Development has agreed to share client code that can be scripted to authenticate and respond to quiz questions

automatically. The fully programmed script will likely take 18 hours each to write

and test Fully programmed scripts will utilize the identical communications stack of the actual client avoiding missed communication nuances.

iv The U S Federal Trade Commission has recently sued SmartyBogusFauxApp and OutSmartMe example com over promises of prizes and unreliability

v The upgrade being tested was paid for by the latest round of venture funding Supporting 5 million users is requirement that was a condition of their funding.
