load test

A load test evaluates how a system, such as a website or application, performs under expected or peak user demand. It involves simulating multiple users accessing the service simultaneously to see if it can handle the workload without slowing down, crashing, or behaving unexpectedly. The goal is to identify potential bottlenecks and ensure the system remains reliable and responsive under real-world conditions. Load testing helps organizations confirm that their infrastructure is robust enough to support their users and provides a smooth experience even during busy times.
