I put together a guide on creating a custom testing framework in Python using Locust and Docker. It’s a practical way to run performance and fuzz tests with controlled resources (CPU, memory) and simulate production traffic. Locust handles requests and stats with a nice dashboard, while Docker ensures a reproducible environment for your service. You can even hook it into CI/CD pipelines.
