Multiple choice technology architecture

A project manager concludes that his application doesn't need to be Performance tested as it is an out of the box implementation. You do not agree to his conclusion because

  1. Out of the box implementations usually doesn't meet performance requirements

  2. Project manager was given an agressive schedule as it is an Out of the box implementation

  3. Out of the box implementation may have undocumented performance problems

  4. Less experianced deveopers were involved as it is an out of the box implemenation

Reveal answer Fill a bubble to check yourself
C Correct answer
Explanation

Even out-of-the-box implementations can have performance problems that only surface under load or specific conditions. These issues are often undocumented and may not be discovered until production use. Performance testing validates whether the OTB solution meets requirements, especially for critical transactions or peak loads. A is incorrect because OTB software can meet requirements; B and D are irrelevant to testing need.
