Look inside
Svalbard Inc.’s Scandinavian furniture is quickly becoming a living room staple in homes across the globe. To tame the cost of its success, the company has decided to migrate from expensive-to-scale legacy mainframes to a more flexible, modern deployment model. Your task is to implement continuous load testing and reporting. Using hyper and Tokio, you’ll send HTTP requests as you create a proof of concept. You’ll drive multiple concurrent connections using Tokio, gather and improve metrics from these connections by designing an asynchronous execution flow, and add robust error handling. When you’re finished, you’ll have a fully functioning, scalable HTTP load-test application.
This project is designed for learning purposes and is not a complete, production-ready application or solution.
