Hi,
 
Stress Testing: Testing conducted to evaluate a system or component at or beyond the limits of its specified requirements to determine the load under which it fails and how.
 
To explain this in simple language, Testing conducted with minimal resources made available for the system/application to operate and checking the behaviour of the system or conditions under it fails.
 
Guess my answer is easy to understand for you.
 
Guys you can correct me if I have misinterpreted anywhere.
 
Regards,
S.V.Srikanth
