title: How do I simulate transient errors with Azure Database?
body: <p>I am working with the Transient Fault Handling Application Block (TFHAB) to define a retry policy when interfacing with an Azure Database. I'm wondering if there is a way to invoke a throttling response in order to plan and handle likely production scenarios?</p>
  
  <p>I could place an SQL command in a loop and run it until I invoke a response however presumably this is not considered to be "best practice"?</p>
  
  <p>Can anyone suggest some practical ways in which I can test my transient error handling logic?</p>
