Service virtualization is used in test environments to simulate the behaviors, data, and performance characteristics of dependent systems that are not available for testing due to limitations such as cost, access, or complexity. This allows for more thorough testing of the product under test in a controlled, stable environment that mimics real-world conditions without the need for actual live systems .

An ISTQB defined technique for identifying risks when defining a risk-based approach to testing the performance efficiency of a new application is to analyze the requirements to look for areas where performance efficiency requirements have not been well-defined. This technique ensures that testing efforts are focused on areas of the application that are critical for performance but may have insufficient coverage in terms of detailed requirements​​.
