A Correct answer
Explanation

Load testing specifically tests system behavior under expected user loads by measuring response times at various load levels (500, 750, 1000 users as mentioned). The key characteristic is testing at SPECIFIC increasing load levels and measuring response. Stress testing tests beyond normal load, performance testing is broader, and reliability testing focuses on consistency. Load testing with its graduated load measurement perfectly matches 'testing response time at various levels of load'.
