Sam,

Seems like a good plan and huge topic ;)

I would as well suggest to take a look at the similar efforts in OpenStack:
- Failure injection: https://github.com/openstack/os-faults
- Rally Hooks Mechanism (to inject in rally scenarios failures):
https://rally.readthedocs.io/en/latest/plugins/implementation/hook_and_trigger_plugins.html


Best regards,
Boris Pavlovic
