Ideally, stress testing should be carried out in a:
A.
test environment using test data.
B.
production environment using live workloads.
C.
test environment using live workloads.
D.
production environment using test data.
Explanation:
Stress testing is carried out to ensure a system can cope with production workloads. A test environment should
always be used to avoid damaging the production environment. Hence, testing should never take place in a
production environment (choices Band D), and if only test data is used, there is no certainty that the system
was stress tested adequately.
