In order to build confidence in our system (Zeebe) and to find issues/problems/bugs before our users do,
we started to invest in a discipline so called Chaos Engineering. This repository contains everything
related to that, like chaos experiments, an hypotheses backlog etc.
We encourage our users to contribute to this project as much as possible, under consideration our contribution guide and code of conduct.
Definition of Chaos Engineering:
Chaos Engineering is the discipline of experimenting on a system in order to build confidence in the system’s capability to withstand turbulent conditions in production.
This definition and everything related to that can be found under principlesofchaos.

In order to test or execute chaos experiments we use an tool called chaos-toolkit, which makes it easy to create chaos experiments and also automate them later on.
All our current experiments are located under chaos-experiments/, for more details please have a look
at the README.
