STRESS TESTING

Stress testing tries to break the system under test by overwhelming its resources or by taking resources away from it (in which case it is sometimes called negative testing). The main purpose behind this is to make sure that the system fails and recovers gracefully - this quality is known as recoverability.

See and also recommended books Reference Testing REGRESSION TESTING Reliability Testing (same as Soak testing) Repetion Testing Robust Test SANITY TEST - A Sniff Test SDLC - systems development life cycle SMOKE TEST (Guidelines) Smoke Testing is a very light testing, usually on areas that have changed since the code/product was last examined, or after the first "assembly". If it passes the Smoke Test, it is worth being tested further. SNIFF TEST - a Reality Test to determine if the product/idea/venture works sufficently well to merit further testing. More info Soak testing - testing a system with a significant load extended over a significant period of time, to discover how the system behaves under sustained use.
