What do you understand by the term ‘stress testing’? Suggest how you might stress test the Mentcare system.
What will be an ideal response?
Stress testing is where you deliberately increase the load on a system beyond its
design limit to see how it copes with high loads. The system should degrade
gracefully rather than collapse.
The Mentcare system has been designed as a client-server system with the
possibility of downloading to a client. To stress test the system, you need to arrange
for (a) many different clinics to try and access the system at the same time and (b)
Large numbers of records to be added to the system. This may involve using a
simulation system to simulate multiple users.
