Without digging too deep, this will get you in a whole heap of trouble:

const int STACK_SIZE = 100;    // Maximum size of a stack

..

         int data[STACK_SIZE];       // The items themselves
..

   for (i=0; i < 5000; i++) {
      test_stack.push(i);

How big is data?  How many items do you push?

Also using exception specifiers is generally regarded as bad practice. 
It will land you in all sorts of problems if something you call throws 
some other exception type.
