Show Suggested Answer

Suggested Answer: B

Spike testing involves subjecting a system to a significant increase in load for short periods of time to determine if it can handle sudden spikes in traffic. Emily's scenario of testing a system's response to a high number of concurrent users during specific periods and then returning to a stable state fits the description of spike testing.

I know what ramp-up is, but I still can't decide between C and D. Maybe I should just guess and hope for the best.

I'm going with D. Ramp-up is a technique to increase the load, not a stage of reaching or finishing anything.

Ha! 'Finishing the test' as a ramp-up concept? That's a good one. Clearly, B is wrong.
