Load Testing APIs, trying to simulate behavior of users who is hitting same API to progress.

Anyone have any Idea on how you can loadtest backend nodejs API, trying to simulate a one after another request by the same user and multiple of them. Is this enough what other scenarios I should think of or is there anything else am I missing? I'm using jmeter for now, But I'm open to anything else

This looks better than jmeter, Do you know any resources on how to go about it. As I have little to no Idea about load testing or stress testing
