Testing of Kafka validates if Kafka cluster is able to handle current load without any failures. Most of time testing Kafka, is testing the whole application as Kafka is really fast in terms accepting messages and consumer applications which consume messages from Kafka topics lead to overall high processing times. Now coming on testing Kaka we are supposed to send\consume huge numbe
