Load Testing

Load testing will include the applications behavior up to and including its limits.

Load testing refers to steady increases in load until significant operational degradation or failure.

This will specifically refer to the load size (number of virtual users) and related values.


performing load tests on applications that are changing even as the tests are being performed

performing load tests with applications that are not functionally tested so that even basic capabilities are not operational


performing load tests on certain parts of the application that work and extrapolating the results to the entire application

performing load tests with a smaller number of concurrent users and extrapolating the result for larger numbers
