what is performance testing

11. Check if the page load time is
2within the acceptable range.
32. Check the page load on slow connections.
43. Check the response time for any action
5under a light, normal, moderate, and heavy load conditions.
64. Check the performance of 
7database stored procedures and triggers.
85. Check the database query execution time.
96. Check for load testing of the application.
107. Check for the Stress testing of the application.
118. Check CPU and memory usage under peak load conditions.

1When do you use Performance Testing?
2Performance testing is done to check the performance
3of website servers, database, and network.
4If you are adopting waterfall methodology,
5then it is important for you to check each time
6release of a new version. However, 
7if you are using the agile software development approach,
8then you need to test application continuously.

3What is Load testing?
4Load testing is the process that simulates
5actual user load on any application or website.
6It checks how the application behaves during normal
7and high loads. This type of testing is applied
8when a development project nears to its completion.
9Load testing is performed to determine how many
10users the system can handle.

12What is Stress testing?
13Stress testing is testing that checks the upper
14limits of your system by testing it under extreme loads. 
15Stress testing is a type of testing that determines
16the stability and robustness of the system. 
17It is a non-functional testing technique.
18This technique uses auto-generated simulation
19model that checks all the hypothetical scenarios.

1In software quality assurance, performance testing is in general a testing practice performed to determine how a system performs in terms of responsiveness and stability under a particular workload.
