Explain the Stress Testing

Answer Posted / rajendra

Stress testing is a form of testing that is used to
determine the stability of a given software system in
abnormal operational conditions.

Testing the application behavior beyond normal operational
capacity.

For example if a web application can handle 100 users max
any point of time.
Remember that 100 users is the max handling capacity of the
web application.

In stress testing testers will generate scenario to test
the application.
as follows:
test-1:110 users
test-2:120 users
test-3:150 users....etc

Then they will observe the Load(user) vs the response(time)
characteristics.this will give the clear picture of the
application under stress conditions.
