CompTIA CySA+ (CS0-002) — Question 251

A development team recently released a new version of a public-facing website for testing prior to production. The development team is soliciting the help of various teams to validate the functionality of the website due to its high visibility. Which of the following activities best describes the process the development team is initiating?

Answer options

• A. Static analysis
• B. Stress testing
• C. Code review
• D. User acceptance testing

Correct answer: D

Explanation

User acceptance testing is the process where actual users validate the functionality of a system to ensure it meets their needs before going live. The other options, such as static analysis and code review, focus more on the code itself rather than the end-user experience, while stress testing evaluates performance under load rather than functionality.
