Common Mistakes

Using strings instead of numbers for duration.

Adding units inside the value.

The duration should be an integer representing seconds, so 60 is correct.

Using incorrect header keys.

Using invalid URLs.

The headers dictionary must specify JSON content type, and the URL points to the API endpoint.

Fill all three blanks to create a load test function that sends a POST request with JSON data.

Rest API

        json=[3]
    )
    return response.status_code

Using 'get' instead of 'post' for sending data.

Passing data as a string instead of a dictionary.

The function uses the 'post' method to send JSON data to the specified URL and returns the status code.
