Develop in a Container

You can also use https://github.com/okteto/okteto to run the samples on a pre-configured container.

1. Install okteto CLI
2. okteto namespace: This will create a free account on Okteto Cloud to run your dev container, and download the necessary credentials.
3. okteto up: This will start the remote development environment from you, and give you a remote terminal.

Once your remote environment is running, you can connect to it with any of the following options:

• okteto exec bash
• ssh intro-to-chaos-engineering.okteto
• VSCode Remote SSH plugin

Run Experiments

Experiments are meant to be run from the root of this repo.

1. chaos run experiments/call-service.json
2. chaos run experiments/expired-certificate.json
3. chaos run experiments/latency.json
4. chaos run experiments/kubernetes.json
