Backgrounder at wiki here.
They may test the instrument under, for example, the following stresses:
What happens if unemployment rate rises to v% in a specific year?
What happens if equity markets crash by more than w% this year?
What happens if GDP falls by x% in a given year?
What happens if interest rates go up by at least y%?
What if half the instruments in the portfolio terminate their contracts in the fifth year?
What happens if oil prices rise by z%?
I notice that they don't have one like "What if bank reserve assets increase suddenly by x% in one week?"
