Python API Load Test in 5 min with Locust - A modern load testing framework

I was looking for simple way to set up load test for my API application (Django with DRF).
I first tried multi-mechanize but I had a few issue installing dependencies such as Matlab and decided that I don't have time for this... and encountered Locust.

With this great example, I had my API Load Test up and running in matter of 5 minutes.
