Answer / jayesh katariya
Testing application to check how it will behave with
increasing number of users/ For perticular scenario is
called LOAD TESTING
but when you start testing the system when system is so
much loaded such that it fails to execute...
For example- you test online banking Application that can
handle 10000 transactions/Sessions for perticular function
when you start testing with 100, 1000, 4000 etc. to analyze
time taken, performance, system issues is called LOAD TEST
when you keep doing this you may find that system becomes
slow with increasing load and when reaches 10000+ it fails
to function further, but it should take care of all the
failed transactions/ other functionalities/ related pages
etc. in best way can be considered as a STRESS TEST (this
is just a simple example...)

Testing an application under heavy load,such as testing of a
website under a range of loads to determine at what point
the system's time degrades or fails.
Beyond the expected or increase the load is called stress
testing.

Answer / pravin
To create heavy user load to the server and estimate the
server performance is call load tesing. where as take one
by one user load to the server and estimate the server
performance is called stress testing.
time consume by load testing is very low.
time consume by stress testing is very high because we take
the load one by one.
if anyting wrong then plz inform me.
