Explanation

Performance testing is the umbrella term that encompasses stress testing and load testing. Load testing checks system behavior under expected load, stress testing pushes beyond expected limits, and performance testing evaluates overall system responsiveness, stability, and scalability under various conditions. The other options are unrelated: Recovery testing checks system recovery after failures, Compatibility testing validates interoperability, and Comparison testing compares different versions or systems.
