Chaos Monkey for Spring Boot
summary
Adds a single dependency to a Spring Boot app, uses Actuator to enable/disable attacks at runtime, and configures service/repository watchers to inject latency or throw exceptions at a configurable level (e.g. ~1 in 2 requests). Demo uses a movie REST endpoint, shows Chaos Toolkit driving experiments (enable attacks, assert steady state, rollback), then adds a Weaver-based fallback (returns Titanic) to restore availability. Also supports runtime assaults via cron and a flaky memory assault; integrates with Chaos Mesh.
