    • A.

      Stress Testing

    • B.

      Spike Testing

    • C.

      Load Testing

    • D.

      All of these

    Correct Answer
    B. Spike Testing
    Explanation
    Spike Testing involves abruptly increasing system load to observe its behavior under sudden, intense conditions, distinct from typical Load Testing scenarios.

    Rate this question:

  • 7. 

    ______ is / are not a Iterative Model.

    • A.

      V Model

    • B.

      Incremental

    • C.

      RAD

    • D.

      Spiral Model

    Correct Answer
    A. V Model
    Explanation
    V Model and Incremental are not considered pure Iterative Models. RAD and Spiral Model follow iterative development approaches.

    Rate this question:

  • 8.
