Fuzzing or Fuzz Testing
Fuzzers = Fault Injectors.
Fuzzing is not new - any good tester has always included the use
of Fuzzing, although I did not call it Fuzzing.
Long before other tester strarted using Fuzzing, Fuzzing was used
by Hackers to take break into computers.

LOAD TESTING
In the testing literature, the term "load testing" is usually defined as the process of
exercising the system under test by feeding it the largest tasks it can operate with.
Load testing is sometimes called volume testing, or longevity/endurance testing.

STRESS TESTING
Stress testing tries to break the system under test by overwhelming its resources
or by taking resources away from it (in which case it is sometimes called
negative testing).
The main purpose behind this is to make sure that the system fails and recovers
gracefully - this quality is known as recoverability.

REALITY TEST - As far as I am concerned, Reality Test = Sanity Test = Sanity Check = Smoke Test = Sniff Test are the same in most cases.
Recovery Testing (same as Soak testing)
Reengineering
Refactoring - a structured method for altering code without altering the result, and
making the code faster, slower and/or more robust. See and also recommended books
Reference Testing
REGRESSION TESTING
Reliability Testing (same as Soak testing)
Repetion Testing
Robust Test
SANITY TEST - A Sniff Test
SDLC - systems development life cycle
SMOKE TEST (Guidelines)
Smoke Testing is a very light testing, usually on areas that have changed since
the code/product was last examined, or after the first "assembly". If it passes
the Smoke Test, it is worth being tested further.
SNIFF TEST - a Reality Test to determine if the product/idea/venture works sufficently well
to merit further testing. More info
Soak testing - testing a system with a significant load extended over a significant period of time,
to discover how the system behaves under sustained use. Also Known as
RECOVERY Testing or RELIABILITY Testing - will the product recover
to a sane state if subjected to abnormal input (or is the customer out-to-lunch)?

UAT - User Acceptance Test
User Acceptance Test. UAT also is called beta testing,
end-user testing or application testing. It is a test
usually performed by the customer, or at least in a
simulated customer lab environment, using real world
tests scenarios. Normally, if the product passes the
UAT, and all deliverables are provided, the customer
accepts the product.
