Stress testing A test to obtain the maximum level of service that a system can provide by identifying bottlenecks or points of unacceptable performance. In layman's terms, stress testing is designed to discover under what conditions your application's performance becomes unacceptable.

Examples of extreme stress tests:

1) time to receive a data file with a large amount of data;

2) time to recover a large amount of data;

3) time to import and export a large amount of data;

4) time to enter a large amount of data;

5) time to compute a large amount of data;

6) time to perform multiple simultaneous clients for a certain commit operation;

7) the use of test tool software;

8) the writing of test script programs;

9) the query statistics time of a large amount of data.

Example:

Test different data volumes within a system with only one user logged in using the same operations. Record the amount of data and the corresponding resource usage, response time.
