Abstract
A system determines a topology of a distributed system and determines, based on the topology, one or more injection points in the distributed system to inject failure scenarios. Each failure scenario including one or more faults and parameters for each of the faults. The system prioritizes the failure scenarios and injects a failure scenario from the prioritized failure scenarios into the distributed system via the one or more injection points. The system determines whether the injected failure scenario causes a response of the distributed system to fall below a predetermined level. The system determines resiliency of the distributed system to one or more faults in the injected failure scenario based on whether the injected failure scenario causes the response of the distributed system to fall below the predetermined level.
