Chaos Testing for Automation Engineers Why automation passes in CI but fails in production ⏱ Reading time: 10–12 minutes Most automation engineers have experienced this moment: All test cases are green. Pipelines are passing. Confidence is high. And then production fails. This blog explains why that happens — and how Chaos Testing , inspired by Anti-Gravity thinking, helps automation engineers test reality instead of assumptions. Why Automation Testing Often Gives False Confidence Automation scripts usually validate: Stable environments Correct inputs Predictable flows Fast responses But real systems don’t behave this way. Production systems face: Network delays Service timeouts Partial failures Unexpected user behavior Chaos Testing exists to simulate these conditions intentionally — before users experience them. What Is Chaos Testing (In Simple Terms) Chaos Testing is n...

Google Anti-Gravity Thinking in Software Testing A practical mindset that prepares testers to break systems the right way Software testing is often taught as a structured activity. Write test cases. Follow steps. Verify expected results. Mark Pass or Fail. This works well in training environments — but real users don’t behave this way. They don’t read requirements. They don’t follow flows. They don’t wait patiently. They click early. They click repeatedly. They lose network. They rotate screens. They refresh pages. And when this happens, many applications fail silently. That is why production bugs exist. To catch these bugs early, testers must think differently. They must think beyond rules. They must think beyond assumptions. This is where Anti-Gravity Thinking becomes powerful. What Is Anti-Gravity Thinking in Testing? Google Anti-Gravity is a visual experiment where UI elements do not stay fixed. They float. They move. They fall out of place. In...
