In software engineering, software testing phase has its own role in reducing bugs and ensuring software does what it is supposed to do. In order to maintain software quality, a few approaches of testing have been widely used in Motorola. One of the effective approaches is stress test. It has been practiced in system level testing on mobile device products. Stress test has helped a lot in identifying bugs and errors during testing phase especially under stressful conditions. Stress test on Java component for J2ME compatible mobile device is a phase of validation and verification of the operations of mobile devices under stressful situations. The stress test is based on requirements and test procedures that have been determined during test development phase. In this paper, we have documented our experiences and some recommendations to improve the current practice in stress test development for Java component in J2ME compatible mobile devices
