Answer / aakash bhadoria
All the three types of testing are categorized under
performance Testing.
Load testing: An application performance when checked under
increasing load(Virtual users) to the expected load is
called load testing. In load testing if there are 100 users
defined ie load for the extent an application/system can
bear then the load is increased only to this extent
Stress testing: For above defined criteria stress testing is
always performed above the extreme conditions ie load is
increased above 100 and check at which point application
starts to degrade or stop working.
Volume Testing: This testing is performed while entering the
variety of data in the system.The maximum data at which
system starts to degrade.

Answer / neha
Load Testing:V gradualy increase the load and check the
performance of the application .v check at what point or
maximum load application can sustain.
stress testing:In this testing v check the performance of
application under extrime condion which rarely occurs like
(1)Many concurrent user access the application for short
time.
(2)extra ordinary long transction.
(3)very short transaction repeted quckly.

Answer / jayaraman
Load Testing : to check the performence of an application
based on increasing no.of vusers.
Stress Testing : to check the performence of an application
based on increasing no.of resources.
Performence Testing : To check whether our application is
giving response with in the expected time or not.

Answer / s@ty@
Volume Testing =
->Test a system against Large amounts of data.
->Oftenly related to Data base testing,No real users.
Load Testing =
->To determine @ which point of Time system degrades from
expected behaviour against a load.
->Large amount of users.
->Time constraints.
->Within the defined load limits.
Stress Testing =
->Too many users, too much data, too little time and too
little room.
->Test the system against increasing load.
->To find out @ which point of load system gets Crash or
Break down.

Answer / belal raslan
Performance is not a testing type, its a family that
include (stress, load and volume).
Stress: Is testing the behavior of the system (or usually a
specific functionality) under extra usage conditions for a
specific period of time. Example: How many search request
can Google site handle in 1 minute.
Load: Is testing the system capability (peak) to handle
over load. this is usually done by adding v.users using
automation tools. Example: How many user sessions can
Google site handle concurrently.
Volume: Is used with stress and load and its related to
testing the system for the 'exact' expected load and stress.

Load Testing means Customer expected Configaration and
customer expected load tested with number of vusers is
called Load testing.
Stress Testing means Customer expected Configaration and
More than the customer expected load tested with number of
vusers is called Stress testing.
Volume means increasing the Users till saturation point is
reached

Answer / senz
Stress is the combination of both volume and load, so need
not to increase in volume alone even user can also
increased objective here is to check the up to which extend
it can bare the increasing load and volume.
Volume means increasing the Users till saturation point is
reached
Volume means increasing the Date till saturation point is
reached
