what is the difference between Load,Stress and Volume Testing?

Answer Posted / ramyasri

Load testing – Its a performance testing to check system
behavior under load. Testing an application under heavy
loads, such as testing of a web site under a range of loads
to determine at what point the system’s response time
degrades or fails.

Stress testing – System is stressed beyond its
specifications to check how and when it fails. Performed
under heavy load like putting large number beyond storage
capacity, complex database queries, continuous input to
system or database load.

volume testing:
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
