This pull request introduces comprehensive documentation and testing improvements for the QueueLess backend, focusing on the application of Parallel and Distributed Computing (PDC) concepts and providing detailed stress test analysis. It also adds a robust Locust-based load testing script and a minor fix to the mock data seeding logic. These changes collectively enhance the transparency, reliability, and testability of the system.
Documentation of PDC Concepts and System Design:
PDC_CONCEPTS.md, which clearly explains how core PDC concepts (client-server architecture, distributed messaging, concurrency control, distributed throttling, distributed system simulation, and stress testing) are applied in the QueueLess backend, with code pointers for each concept.Performance and Stress Test Analysis:
Test_Analysis.md, providing a detailed report on Locust-based load testing results, including key metrics, observations on distributed throttling, scalability, graceful degradation, and recommendations for production deployment.Testing and Load Simulation:
locust_tests/locustfile.py, a realistic Locust test script that simulates user behaviors such as joining queues, checking status, and browsing institutions, enabling reproducible stress testing of the API under concurrent load.Data Seeding Logic Fix:
