...Burrow runs Ethereum Virtual Machine (EVM) and Web Assembly (WASM) smart contracts. Burrow networks are synchronized using the Tendermint consensus algorithm. A node can detect if its state is corrupted or if a validator is dishonestly executing the protocol. Run a private or public permissioned network. Stakeholders may vote for autonomous smart contract upgrades. Application state is organised in an event stream and can drive external systems.

Testing distributed systems under hard failures like network partitions and instance termination is critical, but it's also important we test them under less catastrophic conditions because this is what they most often experience. Comcast is a tool designed to simulate common network problems like latency, bandwidth restrictions, and dropped/reordered/corrupted packets. It works by wrapping up some system tools in a portable(ish) way. On BSD-derived systems such as OSX, we use tools like ipfw and pfctl to inject failure. On Linux, we use iptables and tc. Comcast is merely a thin wrapper around these controls. Windows support may be possible with wipfw or even the native network stack, but this has not yet been implemented in Comcast and may be at a later date. ...
