Question:
The idea in a stress test is to ask questions. What if... The easy questions would include those that prompted the user to look at a sudden increase in sales that might not match the inventory or the manufacturing capability.
The hard stress test questions would point toward more challenging difficulties. Consider normal sales but the manufacturing plant has burned to the ground. Consider both types but lean toward the calamitous when devising the stress test question. If the business can handle the catastrophic, then it can probably handle the mundane or everyday stresses.
Develop stress test questions for the following business scenario.
