# Jepsen Testing Results
|
|
|
|
[Jepsen](http://aphyr.com/posts/281-call-me-maybe-carly-rae-jepsen-and-the-perils-of-network-partitions)
|
|
is a tool, written by Kyle Kingsbury, designed to test the partition
|
|
tolerance of distributed systems. It creates network partitions while fuzzing
|
|
the system with random operations. The results are analyzed to see if the system
|
|
violates any of the consistency properties it claims to have.
|
|
|
|
As part of our Consul testing, we ran a Jepsen test to determine if
|
|
any consistency issues could be uncovered. In our testing, Consul
|
|
gracefully recovered from partitions without introducing any consistency
|
|
issues.
|
|
|
|
## Running the tests
|
|
|
|
At the moment, testing with Jepsen is rather complex as it requires
|
|
setting up multiple virtual machines, SSH keys, DNS configuration,
|
|
and a working Clojure environment. We hope to contribute our Consul
|
|
testing code upstream and to provide a Vagrant environment for Jepsen
|
|
testing soon.
|
|
|
|
## Output
|
|
|
|
Below is the output captured from Jepsen. We ran Jepsen multiple times,
|
|
and it passed each time. This output is only representative of a single
|
|
run and has been edited for length. Please reach out on [Consul's Discuss](https://discuss.hashicorp.com/c/consul)
|
|
if you would like to reproduce the Jepsen results.
