Stress Testing is a critical component of ensuring the reliability, performance, and scalability of web applications.
Identifying Performance Limits
Evaluating Scalability
Avoiding Downtime and Outages
Preparing for Traffic Surges
Boosting Reputation and Trust
Optimizing Resource Allocation
Compliance and Regulatory Requirements
During a stress test, various scenarios are simulated to push the web application to its limits. This includes scenarios like a sudden spike in user traffic, a surge in transaction volume, or other events that could cause a significant increase in load. The goal is to identify performance bottlenecks, potential points of failure, and to determine if the application can maintain acceptable performance levels under stress.
