Pumba vs recheck-web: What are the differences?
What is Pumba? Chaos Testing Tool for Docker Containers. It is a chaos testing tool for Docker containers, inspired by Netflix Chaos Monkey. The main benefit is that it works with containers instead of VMs. It can kill, stop, restart running Docker containers or pause processes within specified containers. We use it for resilience testing of our distributed applications.
What is recheck-web? Easy creation and maintenance of more complete and nearly unbreakable tests. It is a Golden Master-based test framework on top of Selenium that allows for easy creation and maintenance of more complete and nearly unbreakable tests. If you want to give it a quick try, checkout the Chrome extension that is based on recheck-web.
Pumba and recheck-web can be primarily classified as "Testing Frameworks" tools.
Some of the features offered by Pumba are:
- Chaos injection with network emulation
- simulate network delay and packet loss
- delay of all outgoing packets
On the other hand, recheck-web provides the following key features:
- Semantic diffing
- Unbreakable selenium
- Visual regression testing
