When performing performance testing, you usually face this question: "StressTest and load test (Loadtest) are what?"
Let us first understand what is pressure test, load test. The pressure test is an impact on the system performance under certain load conditions. Load Test: Under a certain working load, the load caused by the system and the system responding to the system. From conceptual distinguishing them, you can see that the pressure test has a long run, while the load test load type may be other types. The pressure test is mainly to find changes in the performance of the software system under one (arbitrary). By changing the application's input to apply a growing load (concurrent, loop operation, multi-user) and measure changes in these different inputs, it is usually the concept: the pressure test is currently The maximum load that can be affected by the system in the hardware environment and helps to find the system bottleneck. In fact, this test can also be referred to as load testing, but load tests typically describe a particular type of pressure test - increasing the number of users to perform pressure testing applications.
For example, in practice, we say that from the relatively small load, gradually increase the number of simulated users until the application response time is timeout, that is, the load test.
