agentx-techsummit-loadtest

An API which simulates loaded responses to demonstrate load testing.

Getting Started

Some notes:

• A rate limit is initialized to a default of 50 concurrent requests.
• You may change this limit by making a POST to http://localhost:8080/limit with the following payload:

{"limit":10}

• When the rate limit is reached requests will be made to wait until others finish.
• Additionally, when the rate limit is exceeded faults will be injected into the system. The proportion of failed responses you can expect is based on the following formula:

PercFailedResponses = NumberRequestsOverLimit / Limit

Spec

• GET http://localhost:8080/data
  • A basic response body and 200 OK will be returned. The response time will be random under 1 second.
• POST http://localhost:8080/click
  • Will return 204 No Content. The response time will be random under 100 milliseconds.
• POST http://localhost:8080/limit
  • Change the limit for allowed concurrent requests. The default is 50.

Usage

Run from the /cmd/api directory:

go run *.go

You may also use the docker-compose.yml to spin up a container if you do not have Go installed:

docker-compose up
