Volume Testing means Testing the software with large volume 
of data in the database.

testing the software with heavy volumes of data. it is done 
to findout memory leaks and buffer overflows.

Volume Testing:

Testing that purposely subjects a system (both hardware and 
software) to a series of tests where the volume of data 
being processed is the subject of the test.
Such systems can be transactions processing systems 
capturing real time sales or could be database 
updates/deletes and or data retrieval or you can say that 
It is to test the volume of data is acceptable to meet the 
projected capacity of the organisation's business 
processing.

Volume Testing is the subset of stress testing.In the volume
testing we increase the size of the database to check the
performance of the software.
