Linguistic Origin & Historical Etymology

The term is a compound of 'stress' (derived from Middle English 'destresse', meaning hardship or pressure, ultimately from Latin 'strictus') and 'test' (from Old French 'test', a pot used for assaying precious metals). Originally used in structural engineering and metallurgy to describe testing materials under extreme loads, the term expanded metaphorically into medicine, finance, and software engineering during the 20th century.
