Answer Posted / saipranav

as a part of scalability testing we test the expandability

in scalability we test 1.Applicaation scalability
2.Performance scalability
Application scalability: to test the possibility of
implementing new features in the system or updating the
existing features of the system. with the help of design
doc we do this testing

Performance scalability:
to test how the s/w perform when it is subjected to
varying loads to measure and to evaluate the the
performance behaviour and the ability fo the s/w to
continue to function properly under different workloads.

--> to check the comfort level of an application in terms
of user load. and user experience and system tolerance
levels
--> the point within an application that when subjected to
increasing workload begin to degrade in terms of end user
experience and system tolerance
