Chaos Toolkit

Chaos Toolkit is a free, open-source chaos engineering toolkit for developers exploring systems to uncover weaknesses. Experiments define a steady-state hypothesis and probes to check it, along with a method of actions and probes. If the system does not meet the stated steady state, the method is not applied and the experiment must stop. Experiments can be declared in JSON or YAML files, making them suitable for collaboration and orchestration alongside code. The toolkit extends to systems through its Open API and can be embedded in a CI/CD chain. Listed integrations include AWS, Azure, Google Cloud Platform, Kubernetes, Kafka, Slack, Datadog, Grafana, OpenTelemetry, and Prometheus. The standalone CLI is available under Apache License 2.0. It is implemented in Python 3, officially supports Python 3.8 and later, and has only been tested against CPython. Installation instructions cover macOS, Debian or Ubuntu, and Windows; users can install extensions after the CLI and core library. Reliably is a separate platform with SaaS, private SaaS, and on-premises options.
