QA Testing services by an outsourced testing firm can’t be ignored while developing a robust and fully functional Software or application. Stress Testing in Software Testing is a process that is done to determine the sturdiness and robustness of a particular website, software or application by testing it with test cases that are beyond the limits of the product’s normal operation and functionality. 

Also known as Endurance Software Testing or Torture Testing, it basically emphasizes on defect handling when subjected to additional and heavy loads rather than testing under regular environment and situations.

Importance of Stress Testing for Mobile Browser Testing or Application Development

  • This type of Testing is done to verify and determine the stability of the product with respect to system it’s being used on.
  • Under Stress Testing, a particular product is tested beyond its normal operational capabilities to assess how the system will function under heavy loads.
  • The system is subjected to extreme conditions and various environment to ensure that it does not crash or stop working in these circumstances.
  • It is done to analyze and evaluate the product’s behavior after encountering such extreme environmental conditions, which can even lead to a system failure.
  • Stress Test is done to ensure that the application or software recovers even after a failure.
  • It is done to make sure that there are no security concerns, cyber threats or issues after unexpected system failure.
  • Stress Testing checks whether the application has data back up or saved it before shutting the system down.

It majorly concentrates on identifying any unforeseen defects or errors and is very important for mobile performance testing of an application. Stress Software Testing makes sure that the system behaves well and works appropriately in both normal and harsh conditions, without compromising its functionality and basic operations. Hence, it is as important as any other Testing to create a robust Software.
