Explain chaos engineering for resilience testing.

Senior Microservices
Quick Answer Chaos engineering for resilience: start with a hypothesis ("system maintains 99.9% availability when service B fails"). Inject failure (kill service B pods). Measure impact. Verify circuit breakers trip, fallbacks engage, and health checks remove bad instances. If the system behaves as expected, confidence in resilience increases. If not, you found a gap to fix before it finds you in production.

Answer

Chaos engineering introduces controlled failures to test resilience.
Ensures the system recovers gracefully.
