"A test for the computer system to simulate real environment with real volume of data before moving it to production." (Timothy J Kloppenborg et al, "Project Leadership", 2003)
"Testing that evaluates a system or component at or beyond its specified performance limits." (Richard D Stutzke, "Estimating Software-Intensive Systems: Projects, Products, and Processes", 2005)
"A form of simulation modeling that focuses specifically on identifying the response of a model under specific, often highly negative scenarios. Common examples include testing the profitability of a bank given catastrophic levels of mortgage defaults or modeling extreme macroeconomic conditions." (Evan Stubbs, "Delivering Business Analytics: Practical Guidelines for Best Practice", 2013)
"Test of system behavior with overload. For example, running it with too high data volumes, too many parallel users, or wrong usage." (Tilo Linz et al, "Software Testing Foundations, 4th Ed", 2014)
"Stress testing assesses the potential outcome of specific changes that are fundamental, material, and adverse." (Christopher Donohue et al, "Foundations of Financial Risk: An Overview of Financial Risk and Risk-based Financial Regulation" 2nd Ed., 2015)
"A type of performance testing conducted to evaluate a system or component at or beyond the limits of its anticipated or specified workloads, or with reduced availability of resources such as access to memory or servers." (IEEE 610)
