  We have organized this write-up into two parts to demonstrate two different features of Ddosify. In the first part, we will perform a load test on a GET endpoint that accepts base and target currency and returns their exchange rate of them. The rand() utility method is used to send different currencies on each request. In the second part, we will test a POST endpoint that performs exchange operations. We will use a CSV file that contains test data stored on our Test App's Database. Then we import this CSV file into Ddosify to replay the same transactions stored on DB, but in high concurrency. In both parts, we will gain insights into the reliability of our exchange API across high traffic.
