Why simple workloads find the hardest bugs

You hit 100% test coverage, deploy to production, and the system still falls over. An old story, maybe aside from the 100% coverage percent part.

In this episode, David sits down with Marco Primi and Sean Allen from the Antithesis Red Team to talk about a likely missing piece in your testing strategy: workloads.

They break down exactly what workloads are, why they are so helpful for testing distributed systems, and the biggest pitfalls engineers hit when trying them out. They talk about why you have to let go of deterministic, "happy path" testing, and how even a workload as "dumb" as a basic `while true` loop can expose silent data loss that your unit tests would never catch.
