defect in handling peak loads or missing resources
  • deny the program under test the resources it normally uses, by employing such methods as deleting files, concurrently running other resource-hungry programs, making less memory available, or disconnecting the system from the network
  • run a very large number of copies of the program being tested, all at the same time
when
  • a computer becomes short of resources such as memory, disk space or network bandwidth
  • files or data are missing
  • the system is not permitted to perform certain operations
  • the system cannot start new threads
  • the system runs out of space in a fixed size data structure
