What is the Difference between Volume Testing and
Load,Stress tests..?

Answer Posted / vijay n

Volume testing: This is done to test how the system handles
when there is a need for huge volumes of data.

Stress testing: Here we apply more no of users or no of
transactions than prescribed with varying
resources(ram,bandwidth etc)and check where the system
cannot handle that much load.
The intention of this is to break the system.

Load testing: Here we apply more users or transactions and
check where is the max limit at which we can get optimal
performance.
The intention of this is to find the optimal limit
and not to break the system.
