someone tell me the difference between volume testing, stress testing and load testing?..

Answer / ics_ab

Vloume Testing - if you want to volume test your
application with a specific database size, you will explode
your database to that size and then test the application's
performance on it. An 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), You
will create a sample file of the size you want and then
test the application's functionality with that file test
the performance.

Stress - is a form of testing that is used to determine the
stability of a given system or entity. It involves testing
beyond normal operational capacity, often to a breaking
point, in order to observe the results.

Load - testing is to test software intended for a multi-
user audience for the desired performance by subjecting it
with an equal amount of virtual users and then monitoring
the performance under the specified load, usually in a test
enviromnent identical to the production, before going live.
