Endurance Testing with Example, Meaning and Definition

Endurance Testing is a type of Performance Testing which is usually used to determine how much a system can sustain the continuous expected load. During the period of Endurance Testing memory utilization is always monitored to detect any potential leaks.

In short we can say that judging/studying the memory leak of a server under the period of stability is known as Endurance Testing. Due to its judgment and study on memory leak that is the reason why Endurance Testing is also known by the name Soak Testing.

As you know in Endurance Testing memory utilization is monitored so it very important for us to know about memory leak means what it is all about.

When memory allocated to objects are not being freed by the system/application than definitely the memory leak occurs.

Endurance Testing Example – Real Time

Below is given the real time example of Endurance Testing and hope after seen these real time example your knowledge on Endurance Testing should definitely be increased.
For example in the closing days of bank we have continues load on that days so we always test the banking application by keeping in mind the Endurance Testing.
So in Banking Application we always test how much a system/application can sustain the continuous expected load during the closing days of Bank, so it is Endurance Testing Example done on real time Banking Environment.

Endurance Testing Definition

Below is given the definition of Endurance testing which is only a one line definition but clears you a most.
Endurance is an ability to handle continuous load in a difficult/unpleasant situation over some long period of duration/time.

Endurance Testing Meaning

You can estimate what an Endurance Testing is by discovering the meaning of word “Endurance”. Endurance means capacity/fitness so in other words you can say Endurance Testing means Capacity Testing. By Capacity Testing we mean how much a system has its capacity by handling the load for continuous period of time.

Note

Please note that Endurance Testing applies a huge but natural load arrangement of transactions to the system/application for a continuous period of time.

Conclusion


At end we conclude that Endurance Testing is also known as Longevity testing which is used in Load Testing that is the reason why it is considered as the type of Performance Testing. So after seen the post if you have any sort of issues related to the Endurance Testing than, discuss it here in the below comments section.

Difference Between Verification And Validation With Example?

Verification and Validation example is also given just below to this table.                Verification               Validation 1. Verification is a static practice of verifying documents, design, code and program. 1. Validation is a dynamic mechanism of validating and testing the actual product. 2. It does not involve executing the code. 2. It always involves executing the code. 3. It is human based checking of documents and files. 3. It is computer based execution of program. 4.  Verification uses methods like inspections, reviews, walkthroughs, and Desk-checking etc. 4.  Validation uses methods like black box (functional)  testing, gray box testing, and white box (structural) testing etc. 5.  Verification  is to check whether the softwar...

Regression Testing with Example and Strategies

Regression Testing is done to ensure that fixed bug does not affect the remaining functionality of the modules and also the functionality of the same module. In short you can say regression testing  is always done to verify that modified code does not break the existing functionality of the application and works within the requirements of the system. Regression Testing Example  For Example there are three Modules in the Project named Admin Module, Personal Information, and Employment Module and suppose bug occurs in the Admin Module like on Admin Module existing User is not able to login with valid login credentials so this is the bug.  Now Testing team sends the above - mentioned Bug to the Development team to fix it and when development team fixes the Bug and hand over to Testing team than testing team checks that fixed bug does not affect the remaining functionality of the other modules (Admin, PI, Employment) and also the functionality of ...

What Is Functional Testing Explain It with Example?

Functional testing means testing the application against business requirements. Functional testing is executed using the functional specifications given by the client or by the design specifications according to use cases given by the design team. Role of functional testing is to validating the behavior of an application. Functional testing is more important because it always verifies that your system is fixed for release. The functional tests define your working system in a useful manner. In functional testing tester has to validate the application to see that all specified requirements of the client whatever we have said in SRS or BRS have been incorporated or not. Functional testing  is always concentrating on customer requirements and whereas the Non-Functional testing is always concentrating on customer expectations. Functional and Non Functional Test Cases Functional test cases target business goals and non functional test cases target performance, resource...
