  • Actual users can experience major slowdown in application response
  • Real users may not be able to complete their business transactions due to the slow response time
  • Application can be slow even after test completion due to the data generated during the performance test execution
  • Real user can start experiencing application errors and even the application can stop responding
  • It will be difficult to identify the root-cause of the performance bottlenecks in the presence of real users along with simulated users load
  • Real users need to stop the work on the application to get accurate test results but it will make the application unavailable during this time, which might not be possible on business critical applications
