Question

Drag and Drop Question A company is planning a Dynamics 365 deployment. The company needs to determine whether to implement an on-premises or a cloud deployment based on system performance. You need to work with a developer to determine the proper tool from the Performance SDK to complete performance testing. Which tool should you use? To answer, drag the appropriate tools to the correct scenarios. Each tool may be used once, more than once, or not at all. You may need to drag the split bar between panes or scroll to view content. NOTE: Each correct selection is worth one point. Answer:

Explanation

This question tests knowledge of Dynamics 365 performance testing tools - specifically when to use the Performance SDK (PerfSDK) versus LCS Load Testing, based on deployment type and user concurrency requirements.

Approach. PerfSDK is designed for single-user performance testing and is the appropriate tool for on-premises deployments because it runs locally against your environment without requiring cloud connectivity to LCS. MS Dynamics 365 Lifecycle Services (LCS) Load Testing is designed for multi-user (concurrent load) scenarios and is the correct tool for cloud deployments because it leverages Azure infrastructure to simulate many simultaneous users against a cloud-hosted Dynamics 365 environment. The distinction follows two axes: (1) single vs. multi-user and (2) on-premises vs. cloud - PerfSDK covers the local/single path, LCS Load Testing covers the cloud/multi-user path.

Concept tested. Dynamics 365 Performance Testing Tools - differentiating PerfSDK (single-user, on-premises) from LCS Load Testing (multi-user, cloud) based on deployment model and test scope.

Reference. Microsoft Docs: Performance SDK and multiuser testing in on-premises environments (docs.microsoft.com/dynamics365/fin-ops-core/dev-itpro/perf-test/performance-sdk-user-testing); LCS Load Testing documentation for cloud environments.
