Abstract:
A distributed system and method for error handling testing of a target component in the distributed system uses a proxy gateway in the target component that can intercept communications to and from remote components of the distributed system. When a proxy mode of the proxy gateway in the target component is enabled, at least one of the communications at the proxy gateway is modified to introduce an error. When the proxy mode of the proxy gateway in the target component is disabled, the communications to and from the remote components of the distributed system are transmitted via the proxy gateway without modification.
