  "field": "Environment",
  "definition": "This ensures that the maximum load (e.g., real-time data acquisition and control systems) does not exceed limits. The stress test should attempt to simulate the maximum input, output, and computational load expected during peak usage. The load can be defined quantitatively using criteria such as the frequency of inputs and outputs or the number of computations or disk accesses per unit of time.",
