what is volume Testing?..

Answer / chandresh

Volume Testing belongs to the group of non-functional
tests, which are often misunderstood and/or used
interchangeably. Volume testing refers to testing a
software application with a certain amount of data. This
amount can, in generic terms, be the database size or it
could also be the size of an interface file that is the
subject of volume testing. For example, if you want to
volume test your application with a specific database size,
you will expand your database to that size and then test
the application's performance on it. Another example could
be when there is a requirement for your application to
interact with an interface file (could be any file such
as .dat, .xml); this interaction could be reading and/or
writing on to/from the file. You will create a sample file
of the size you want and then test the application's
functionality with that file in order to test the
performance.
