Rate Limiter HTTP Middleware certification

The purpose of this module is to provide tests that certify the Rate Limiter HTTP Middleware as a stable component

Test Plan

• Test rate-limiting against one sidecar configured with 10 rps limit:
  • Sending less than 10 rps should never trigger the rate-limiter
  • Sending more than 10 rps should be rate-limited to ~10 rps
• Rate-limiting per IP:
  • Specify a source IP with X-Forwarded-For and confirm requests are rate-limited per each IP
• Test rate-limiting against multiple sidecars, each configured with 10 rps limit:
  • Rate-limits are applied for each sidecar independently
