ISTQB CT-PT Exam - Topic 2 Question 24 Discussion

Posted by Daniela on Jun 16, 2026 at 02:26 PM

You are managing the testing efforts of an existing distributed system that manages inventories of automobile and light truck tires from multiple warehouses across the country. The system is being enhanced to track incoming restocking shipments at the point of entry to the warehouse and outbound sales shipments at the point of shipment from the warehouse, all of which are executed in real-time. System loads traditionally peak on Mondays due to built-up demand from the previous weekend.

You are preparing a presentation to the business stakeholders, outlining your performance testing strategy.

Which of the following is appropriate to present to this audience?

Suggested Answer: D

Business stakeholders are most concerned with risks that affect deployment and production stability. The primary risk in performance testing is that the test environment may differ from production, leading to misleading test results.

Option A (HTTP response goals) is too technical for a business stakeholder audience.

Option B (Hardware specifications) is relevant for technical teams, not business stakeholders.

Option C (Support staff details) is a logistical aspect, not a key performance testing risk for business decision-makers.

I practiced a question similar to this, and I think presenting technical specs might be too detailed for stakeholders. They probably want high-level insights instead.

I feel like the risks related to platform differences are crucial too. If the test environment doesn't match production, we could miss critical issues.

I'm not entirely sure, but I remember something about the importance of having support staff ready during testing. That could help address issues quickly.

I think we should focus on the response time goals since they directly impact user experience, especially with peak loads on Mondays.
