Feedback

The correct answer is 'False'.

Your answer is incorrect.

The correct answer is:
The goal of Performance Testing is to eliminate these.
→ Bottlenecks,

This determines the maximum user load the software application can handle.
→ Scalability,

This is a type of performance testing conducted to evaluate the behavior of a

system when the load is suddenly and substantially increased.
→ Spike Testing,

This determines whether the application responds quickly.

→ Speed,

This is a type of performance testing conducted to evaluate the behavior of a

system at or beyond the limits of its anticipated workload.
→ Stress Testing,

This determines if the application is stable under varying loads.

→ Stability,

This is a type of performance testing conducted to evaluate the behavior of a

system when a significant workload is given continuously.
→ Endurance Testing,

Its response time, reliability, resource usage, and scalability do matter.

→ Software Application's Performance,

This is a type of performance testing conducted to evaluate the behavior of a

system at increasing workload.
→ Load Testing,

This is a type of software testing that intends to determine how a system

performs in terms of responsiveness and stability under a certain load.
→ Performance Testing

This is normally the initial time it takes an application to start.
