Stars - the number of stars that a project has on GitHub. Growth - month over month growth in stars.
Activity is a relative number indicating how actively a project is being developed. Recent commits have higher weight than older ones.
For example, an activity of 9.0 indicates that a project is amongst the top 10% of the most actively developed projects that we are tracking.

Ask HN: What are you using for load testing?
Usually, I would let organic users be my load test. However, I am working on a project that has an anticipated load on a new-to-my-team stack, so I'm looking into ways to load test.
I've seen tools like k6 (https://k6.io/), Artillery (https://www.artillery.io), and JMeter (https://jmeter.apache.org/).
I've been using Artillery, but it's hard to visualize the results.
What do you use?

What is Load Testing? Complete Tutorial With Best Practices
Apache JMeter: This tool is an open-source application built on Java, designed specifically to test load functionality and performance. Developed by the Apache Software Foundation, JMeter is versatile, able to simulate loads across a wide range of services and protocols such as HTTP, HTTPS, JDBC, LDAP, and SOAP. With an extensible core that can be tailored with plugins, it provides the flexibility needed for different testing scenarios. Its intuitive GUI makes it easy for testers to design test plans and visualize the results in various ways.

GC, hands off my data!
The test scenario consists of querying for descriptions of different offers. During the test, I will collect data on memory and GC parameters using jConsole. I will run the test scenario using jMeter, which additionally will allow me to measure response times.

Tell HN: Postman just wiped all my stuff
FYI some of our people internally use Jmeter. https://jmeter.apache.org/
It's not flashy so it probably wont get the standard "we are going to milk you for data" plan

Best Practices in Testing GraphQL APIs
Performance and load testing are essential parts of GraphQL API testing. It ensures APIs can handle expected traffic volumes and respond within acceptable timeframes. You can use tools like Apache JMeter or Gatling to generate realistic loads and evaluate the API's performance under different scenarios. Techniques like batched queries and caching can help mitigate this issue.

Building a RESTful API with Node.js and Express
Use tools like Postman or Insomnia to test the API endpoints and ensure they behave as expected.

Local automation
For a very long time, the go-to tool was curl. Great, always available command line tool. Unfortunately, there is one small issue. It’s hard to keep requests and collect them in collections, it’s great for one-time shots or debugging, but for constant working with API could be painful. To solve it, I started working with tools like Postman/Insomnia. Then eh... strange licensing model, or changes which occurred from Kong side click, definitely push me again for some lookup. After checking different very popular tools and those not such well known I decided to use… Ansible. Sounds strange right? Let me explain this decision. For example, look at this code.

Tools that Make Me Productive as a Software Engineer
At first, I used Postman for testing APIs because it had a lot of features. But I switched to Insomnia because it was easier to use and kept everything organized. The big problem with Insomnia was that it deleted all my saved work when it made me create an account to keep using it.

Different Levels of Project Documentation
Often used for cases where a project exposes a REST or other type of API service. Open API is a popular method of documenting such API services. It can also be used along side tools such as Swagger Codegen to produce boilerplate code for API interaction / testing purposes. There may also be support files for popular API testing tools such as Postman or Insomnia. This makes it easier at a glance to see what data is coming back from a call so the user knows how to handle parsing the data.

Web scraping in 10 mins
Well, there is this website that I have been trying to scrape for a few days now. I had tried everything from scrapy splash on docker to almost giving up because I read somewhere that it was JavaScript rendered. Since the source code from the inspect part of the developer tools was different from the source code from the view-source:https//... on the same developer tools.How could this be possible? Then I kept searching on internet and found this concept; where you can mimic web-browsers requests from a server using an API program,and it worked magically. Some of the API programs are postman and insomnia. I prefer using insomnia for this particular case , feel free to use any other API program of your choice.
