Topic: Learn Performance Testing

Definition:

Testing conducted to evaluate the compliance of a system or component with specified performance requirements.

It includes Load Testing and Stress Testing.

The goal of performance testing is not to find bugs, but to eliminate bottlenecks and establish a baseline for future regression testing. To conduct performance testing is to engage in a carefully controlled process of measurement and analysis. Ideally, the software under test is already stable enough so that this process can proceed smoothly.
