Description: Operational Load Testing is a type of evaluation that focuses on determining the load capacity of systems and applications under specific usage conditions. These tests simulate multiple users or processes interacting with the system simultaneously, allowing for the identification of how the software behaves under increased workload. The primary goal is to ensure that the system can handle the expected volume of users and transactions without degrading its performance. Operational load testing is essential for ensuring the stability and efficiency of applications, especially in critical environments where downtime can be costly. This type of testing is conducted using automated tools that allow for the simulation of realistic load scenarios, facilitating the identification of bottlenecks and performance issues before the system is deployed in production. By conducting these tests, development teams can optimize software performance, ensuring it meets end-user requirements and maintains a smooth experience even during peak demand.
