Litmus
CNCF chaos engineering platform for Kubernetes that runs fault-injection experiments to validate how applications recover from failure.
- Actively maintained
- Foundation-backed
- Well documented
- Permissive license
Overview
Litmus provides a library of pre-built chaos experiments - pod failures, network delays, resource exhaustion, and more - defined as Kubernetes custom resources, along with a ChaosCenter dashboard for scheduling and observing experiment runs across clusters. It's a CNCF graduated project with a large community-contributed experiment hub.
Litmus is a fit for teams that want a mature, CNCF-graduated chaos engineering tool with a large pre-built experiment library, a genuine alternative to Chaos Mesh (also in this catalog) - teams commonly evaluate both before picking one.
