Exercise Stress Test. A stress test, sometimes called a treadmill test or exercise test, helps a doctor find out how well your heart handles work.

EKGs and stress tests are tests to find out if you are at risk for heart disease and heart attack. An EKG, or electrocardiogram, measures your heartâs activity.In an exercise stress test, you have an EKG while you walk or jog on a treadmill.or example, in 2010, Consumer Reports did a survey of nearly 1,200 people between the ages of 40 and 60. These people had no history or symptoms of heart disease. Yet almost half had had an EKG in the last five years. And almost one out of ten had an exercise stress test.
