Overview

KillMyPod is an interactive, web-based chaos testing dashboard. It gives developers a visual way to manually kill pods inside their Kubernetes clusters to observe replica scaling, pod restart behavior, and traffic routing resilience in real-time.

Key Features

  • 🎯 Simple Interface: Displays pods in a dashboard grid, allowing users to “terminate” a pod with a single click.
  • 🔄 Visual Self-Healing: Watch how the replica set automatically spins up a new pod in real-time to replace the killed one.
  • 📈 Cluster Health Metrics: Visual indicators for cluster namespaces, pending terminations, and node resources.
