A. Stress Testing Defined. Stress testing is a risk management technique used to evaluate the potential effects on an institutionâs financial condition, of a set of specified changes in risk factors, corresponding to exceptional but plausible events. Stress testing includes scenario testing and sensitivity testing (refer to Glossary). Stress testing is especially important after long periods of benign economic and financial conditions, when fading memory of negative conditions can lead to complacency and the underpricing of risk.
Stress testing shows how your heart works during physical stress (exercise) and how healthy your heart is. A standard exercise stress test uses an EKG (electrocardiogram) to monitor changes in your heart's electrical activity.maging stress tests take pictures of blood flow throughout your heart. They also show your heart valves and the movement of your heart muscle. Doctors use both types of stress tests to look for signs that your heart isn't getting enough blood flow during exercise.
