Load Testing · Senior · Question 63 of 76
What is the danger of a load test that always passes?
- 1The tool may stop recording results after many passes
- 2It may test too little load or the wrong things to catch anything
- 3There is no danger: passing tests prove the system is fast
Show the answer
Correct answer: It may test too little load or the wrong things to catch anything
Explanation
Check that the test can fail: inject a known slowdown and see if thresholds catch it. A gate that never fails gives false confidence.
