Creating fault injection experiments from the assessment report - AWS Resilience Hub

Creating fault injection experiments from the assessment report

AWS Resilience Hub recommends that you test your application after you run an assessment report. You can access and run these experiments from your application’s Assessment report.

AWS Resilience Hub provides a list of fault injection experiments, which are Systems Manager documents with testing parameters. When you select an fault injection experiment from the list, AWS Resilience Hub creates an AWS CloudFormation template with the parameters you define in the Systems Manager document. After the creation of the AWS CloudFormation stack, you can see your provisioned fault injection experiments for your application.

The AWS CloudFormation template consists of an IAM role for each Systems Manager document, with the minimum permissions required to run.

To create and run an fault injection experiment from the assessment report

  1. In the left navigation menu, choose Applications.

  2. In Applications, open an application, and choose Assessments.

  3. In Resiliency assessments, open an assessment report, and choose Operational recommendations.

  4. Choose a test, and then choose Create CloudFormation template.

  5. In Create CloudFormation template, enter a name for the fault injection experiment or use a randomly generated name. AWS Resilience Hub displays a message to confirm the template is complete.

  6. In Operational readiness, choose Templates.

  7. Copy the URL in the Templates S3 path and create the stack with the template. The fault injection experiment appears in your Systems Manager account.
