Bench Mark Test,
Load Test,
Stress Test,
Endurance Test,
Spike Test,
Scalability Test
Failover Test.
-Bench Mark Test: Test an application performance to meet
the performance targets at early stages of performance life
cycle.
-Load Test: Test an application performance with
incremental changes to the work load.
-Stress Test: Test an application performance by
overloading on the server(not beyond the limit).
-Endurance Test(En-duration): Test an application behaviour
in a prolong duration.This types of testing especially
requires to find out the "Memory Leakes" of an application.
-Spike Test: Test an application performance with "dynamic"
work load changes. In load runner use the option "Run/Stop
Vuser".
-Scalability Test: Test an application performance by
gradually increasing the amount of user load on the server
until unless break the system.
-Failover Test: If any server fails(during execution time)
to handle the users request how the request should be
allocated to the next availability server is the "failover
test". This is applicable only load balancing concept.

Answer / sivanandam.m
the types of performance testing are
i)load testing -to test the number of users at a time.
ii)stress testing-its about the speed that the user perform.
iii)repetition testing-it is to test the leakage of
memories.....

Answer / pankaj
Mainly, there are 3 types of performance testing:
1) Load Testing: To test the performance and behaviour at
peak load (or speed or configuration)
2) Stress Testing: To test the performance and behaviour
beyond peak load (or speed or configuration)
3) Repetition Testing: To test the performance and
behaviour when testing is done repeatedly. Mainly to check
for memory leaks
