One of the biggest challenges of cloud-based performance testing is the lack of control over test execution timing due to shared cloud resources. Cloud environments dynamically allocate computing power, meaning that test execution may vary due to background processes, VM migrations, or auto-scaling events.

Option B (Inability to generate load) is incorrect because cloud platforms can scale upresources to generate high loads.

Option C (Lack of behavior simulation tools) is incorrect because cloud providers offer robust testing tools.

Option D (Test execution speed being too high) is not a valid performance testing challenge.
