Detailed Concepts of Performance Testing

1
The Concepts of Performance Testing
Performance testing is the testing, which is
performed, to find out how the various modules of
a system are performing, given a specific
circumstance.
2
Purpose of Performance Testing

• Performance testing does not plan to discover
  Defects in the application.
• It addresses somewhat more important task of
  testing the benchmark

3
Load Testing

• Load testing is intended to test the system by
  always and relentlessly increasing the load on
  the system till the time it achieves the
  threshold limit.

4
Purpose of Load Testing

• The objectives of load testing are to uncover the
  defects in application identified with buffer
  overflow, mismanagement of memory and memory
  leakages.

5
Stress Testing

• The main aim behind stress testing is to
  ascertain the failure of the system and to check
  how the system recoups back effortlessly.

6
Purpose of Stress Testing

• The main objective of stress testing is to
  examine post-crash reports to characterize the
  behavior of application after failure.
