There are many possible failure modes, and each exercises a different aspect of resilience. In the same way that we have moved from a few big software releases a year to continuous delivery of many small changes, we need to move from annual disaster recover tests or suffering when things actually break, to continuously tested resilience.

It’s hard to exhaustively test a distributed system with traditional testing techniques. So DSLabs also uses model checking.
