[All CTAL-TTA Questions]

A project to develop a new system has performance efficiency listed as a critical requirement. Which of the following describes how and when the Technical Test Analyst should FIRST be involved in performance test activities for the new system?

Show Suggested Answer Hide Answer
Suggested Answer: C

Stress testing is the most appropriate method for identifying weak areas in code that may cause performance issues, especially under conditions of extreme load or stress. This type of testing deliberately pushes the system beyond its normal operational capacity to see how it behaves under stress, which can help reveal vulnerabilities in error recovery and transactional integrity that are not apparent under normal conditions. Stress testing can provide early insights into potential failure points and help prioritize areas for improvement before full-scale deployment.

Haha, option D - 'Implementing the performance tool's load test scripts'? Sounds like a job for the performance testing team, not the test analyst!
