Environmental stress testing

Environmental stress testing is a method used to evaluate how a system, product, or organization performs under extreme or challenging conditions. It involves subjecting the entity to stressful scenarios—such as high temperatures, moisture, power fluctuations, or other environmental factors—to identify vulnerabilities and ensure reliability. This process helps confirm that the system can operate safely and effectively when faced with real-world stresses, improving robustness and reducing the risk of failure in actual use.
