In Load Testing we r applying load for a particular
limit.Here we hav to test whether application will take
specified load or not.
In Volume Testing where the system is subjected to large
volumes of data.
In Stress Testing we hav to check at what point or at what
load the application will crash.

Answer / shri
Load testing:: Evaluate the response time we get at max
load.
Stress testing: Apply user load beyond the limit.System
will crash at one point of time.. We shd know how it is
crashing(ie) decently or not. Decently means before
crashing it should take backup and tell it s gonna crash now
volume testing: To evaluate the testponse time of DB Server

Answer / satyaprasad
load test means to test the application with maximum
customer expected load
volume testing means test the build with customer expected
load in lesstime
stress means test the build with more than the customer
expected load(generally customer expected load+5%),so the
advantage of stress test is to ensure that application can
be easily run on the customer expected load

Answer / jack
volume testing - test/measure the "volume" (typically
maximum # of transactions) a system, component or module
can handle.
stress testing - test/mesaure the system while under
stress. The stress can come from an outside source. For
example, if you have a 7/24 application, how does it
perform when there is a hot-backup or virus can in play on
the same box? Stress testing can also involved testing the
system under significant load.
Load testing - is a technique - in that you load test an
application to perform stress testing and/or volume
testing. Most automated tools will provide system load -
and as a tester you need to design the test to categorize
if you're trying to volume test a specific component or
scenario; or provide external stress (user load) to the
system.

Answer / sangeetha
load testing means testing the application with increasing
load upto the limit.
e.g: consider limit is 1000 users can login at a time, we
check 1001 users to login at a time.
Stress testing means testing the application with
increasing load beyond the limit.
e.g: consider limit is 1000 users can login at a time, we
check with 1001 users to login at a time.
Volume testing:testing the application with large amt of
data with a short time period.
