SYSTEM DOCUMENTATION & REQUIREMENTS

What problem does it solve?

Deterministic simulation enables reproducible testing of distributed systems by controlling time, network, and I/O.

Core Features & Use Cases

  • Time-compressed deterministic simulation for large-scale scenarios such as consensus protocols and crash-recovery testing.
  • Seed-based reproducibility with invariant checking after each operation to ensure safety properties.
  • Fault-injection capabilities to explore failure modes and verify robustness under adverse conditions.

Quick Start

Run a deterministic simulation campaign with a fixed seed to reproduce a bug.

FAQPage Schema
What is deterministic simulation for distributed systems?▼

Deterministic simulation enables reproducible testing of distributed systems by strictly controlling time, network, and I/O to produce repeatable, debuggable results across millions of ticks.

How do I reproduce a distributed system bug using time-compressed simulation?▼

Run a deterministic simulation campaign with a fixed seed to control time and fault injection, allowing you to reliably reproduce and debug a specific bug or crash-recovery scenario.

Can I inject network failures and verify consensus protocol safety?▼

Yes, fault-injection capabilities allow you to explore failure modes and verify robustness under adverse conditions, while an invariant checker validates safety properties after each operation.

Does deterministic simulation work for large-scale consensus protocol testing?▼

Yes, time-compressed deterministic simulation is designed for large-scale scenarios, supporting consensus protocols and crash-recovery testing across millions of simulated ticks with seed-based reproducibility.

Why are my distributed system tests producing non-repeatable results?▼

Uncontrolled time, network, and I/O cause non-repeatable results; using a seed-based simulator with deterministic simulation ensures invariant checking and repeatable outcomes across runs.
