The difference between volume testing and stress testing for web application
Volume testing – it is purposely meant to test the system by steadily and constantly increasing
the load on system until it can reach a certain limit. It is considered as the simple form of testing
that employs usage of automation tools including LoadRunner. It is also referred to as endurance
testing.
Stress testing – under this testing, different activities to overloading various resources with
excess works that are performed in an attempt to bring the system down. The main aim of the
goal stress testing is analyzing post-crash report to defining application behavior. The key aim of
stress testing is to ensuring that system does not interfere with the crucial data.
When the compatibility testing is important in software testing process:
To begin with compatibility is the ability of the software to work together without any
compromise. In software testing, compatibility is a testing done to ensuring customer
satisfaction. It is done to determining whether your software product or application is effective to
run in different database browsers operating system and hardware.
Localization testing:
Localization testing is a process of software testing that checks for localized version of the
product for a specific locale or culture setting; areas that are affected by localization testing are
content and UI.
Common problem that happens in foreign language of my choosing if localization not
performed:
