A QA team needs to run performance tests that simulate 10,000 concurrent users, but their physical test lab only has enough hardware for 1,000. They need a solution that can be provisioned quickly and scaled up for the test, then scaled down afterward to control costs. Which approach best meets this requirement?

Ask developers to optimize the application so it can be tested with fewer users.

Reduce the test to 1,000 users and run it on the existing hardware.

Purchase additional physical servers and keep them permanently in the lab for future tests.

Use a cloud-based testing service to provision virtual machines on demand, run the load test, and decommission them after the test.

In session-based testing, what is the purpose of a charter?

To document the exact test steps to be executed

To define the mission and scope of the testing session

To record the results of the testing session

To list all the defects found during the session

What is the primary role of a build tool in Agile development?

To manage version control of source code

To track defects and testing tasks

To compile source code and create executable artifacts

To provide a platform for team communication

What is the role of configuration management tools in Agile testing?

To manage code versions, builds, and environments

To automate the execution of test cases

To provide a platform for team communication

To track defects and testing tasks
