    :lock: Memorable site for testing clients against bad SSL configs.

    • I found https://badssl.com/ which at least helps me with the SSL cert issues, but I would still love to hear any other good solutions for testing other types of networking errors.

  • toxiproxy

    :alarm_clock: :fire: A TCP proxy to simulate network and system conditions for chaos and resiliency testing

    • https://github.com/Shopify/toxiproxy is a perfect solution for that. I used it quite successfully years ago and it looks like it's still pretty active.
