Micro-service architectures remain a popular choice for cloud applications. However, micro-service applications are subject to faults such as dropped requests between services which are difficult to catch during development in testing environments. Automated testing tools have been proposed to test the resilience of micro-service applications against faults in testing, but these require manually specifying execution scenarios. In this paper, we propose an approach to resilience testing which integrates fault injection into the fuzzing process. In this way, system executions and faults can be simultaneously explored, allowing fully automated resilience testing.We describe our approach as well as a prototype implementation called Onweer, and evaluate its performance on a standard micro-service benchmark application.
