rate-limit-test-tool

Rate Limit Test Tool UI, built in Angular 5 with RXJS - Hits a Target API Endpoint X Amount of Times, Analyses Results Accordingly Over Time. Useful UI for testing rate limiting and replicating brute force attacks to an extent on your application API endpoints.

Sadly this is not the case with alot of today's applications not applying security against brute force attacks.
