Great. You found the right path to reliable applications.
Select the right framework and proceed with that section:
# Spring Boot
Reliability Platform client for Java Spring Boot connects your application with Reliability Platform and lets you inject faults.
You will need a favorite text editor or IDE, JDK 1.8 or later and Gradle 4+ or Maven 3.2+.
# Install
Add the spring-boot-starter-reliability-platform from Maven to your Gradle or Maven dependencies.
# Configure
Configure your application by following the following steps:
- Sign in to the Reliability Platform.
- Acquire a token in the Tokens view.
- Configure your Spring Boot application with the following externalized configuration:
reliability.platform.application-name=web-api # the application name reliability.platform.application-env=qa # the environment reliability.platform.proofdock-api-token=eyJ0eXAi...05 # obtain it from Reliability Platform
# Usage
Injecting faults is easy. Once you configured your application, follow these steps:
- Run your application.
- Select your application in the Applications view. This step might take up to 30 seconds until your application pops up.
- Activate the fault injection button.
- Start working on the resiliency.
