Stress Testing

For high-stress testing, as mentioned earlier, you need a private network and a collection of client machines. But for average stress testing, you might not necessarily need a private network and lots of clients. Putting your application under a moderate load is often enough to expose bugs. Therefore, running the controller and a client on the server will suffice. Finally, running stress tests on a multiprocessor computer is a great way to find threading bugs.
