Explanation

A load test simulates the expected volume of concurrent users or requests-in this case, the anticipated high number of live streaming viewers-to validate whether the system can maintain acceptable performance and service continuity under peak conditions. This directly addresses the scenario described. Fuzzing (A) involves injecting unexpected or malformed input to discover security vulnerabilities or crashes, not capacity limits. A usability test (B) evaluates user experience and interface design. Fault grading (C) is a hardware reliability metric used in circuit analysis, not applicable to streaming capacity validation.
