Set Up Tracing for a Node.js Application on AppSignal
One of the easiest ways to send lots of fabricated requests at the same time is to use the Vegeta load testing tool. Being a load testing tool, it can send lots of requests consistently, every second, to the given target URL. You can read more about Vegeta on GitHub. The binary can be downloaded and used without installation.

What tools you use for http load testing?
Good morning what tool do you use to test your infra in terms of http load ? A tool that works, I tested : - https://github.com/tsenart/vegeta but it returns 0 errors or a http_net error from Golang - LOIC (Low Orbit Ion Canon) https://github.com/NewEraCracker/LOIC but the requests do not appear in my nginx logs and I feel no slowdown - Apache Jmeter https://jmeter.apache.org/ but I can't drop my infra and I have Java socket closed errors - K6 https://k6.io/ but I can't bring down my infra with - wrk https://github.com/wg/wrk no matter what parameter I put it doesn't make enough requests per second, I put the same parameters as on a tutorial and I don't get the same result...

Load Testing: An Unorthodox Guide
Agreed with a lot of the points here, like starting small with a single piece of your API, then slowly expanding your tests once you’re comfortable that you know what you’re doing.
Note that if you use the Locust framework to write your load tests in Python, it takes care of measuring and reporting the latency and throughput for you. It’s really nice.
