How to make put request using k6?

Sometimes you want to load test put endpoint where you need to send some payload along with some custom headers.

Check out following script that makes put request with some payload: 

import http from 'k6/http';

export default function () {

  // send custom payload/put data
  const payload = JSON.stringify({
    name: 'Bert'
  });

  // send put request with custom header and payload
  const response = http.put('https://httpbin.test.k6.io/put', payload, {
    headers: {
      'Content-Type': 'application/json',
    },
  });

  // show response code in console
  console.log(response.status);
}

Now, run above script to see the results on your terminal: 

k6 run test.js
