|  GAMEOPS05: What should you consider when load testing a game?  |

|   | 

 When load testing a game, consider the appropriate testing stage, load-generating architecture, and testing framework to effectively evaluate system performance and scalability. Choose the right combination of timing (early development, sprints, pre-production, or post-deployment), infrastructure (EC2, EKS, Fargate, or Lambda), and testing tool (JMeter, Locust, Grafana K6, or Gatling) to align with your game's unique characteristics and development goals.
