 ## Summary
 
-This sample contains presets to simulate various API degradation scenarios to test how your application handles partial failures, intermittent errors, rate limiting, and slow responses. Use these configurations to build apps that gracefully degrade under stress and verify that your error handling and retry logic works before production.
