ISTQB Exam CTAL-TTA Topic 2 Question 11 Discussion
Topic #: 2
You are working on a project that is integrating code from multiple development groups. There have been numerous integration problems, particularly regarding reliability, error recovery and transactional integrity. You are now responsible for planning the performance efficiency testing for this product. There Is a strong feeling among the development managers that some parts of the code are weaker than others and will tend to exhibit problems during the performance efficiency testing. To identify these problematic areas as soon as possible, which type of testing should you do?
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.
