Is it possible to test API errors?

I am writing an automation to accommodate for rate limit errors - specifically 429s. In order to do so, my error handling needs to pull the [ratelimit-reset] property from the error message, then add a delay. However, without hammering the end point and causing whatever errors across the production API, I'm not able to test for real world results.

 

Is there a way to test where you can manually trigger a 429 message without actually causing one?

    You can check if the API provides a sandbox or test environment that simulates rate limits. Alternatively, some APIs allow you to set custom headers to trigger specific errors. If those options aren't available, you could mock API responses in your testing framework to simulate a 429 error.
