Introduction #

This document will introduce the design of KWOK.

User Stories #

Scheduler #

As a scheduler developer, I want to test the scheduler with a large number of Nodes and Pods.

CRD Controller #

As a CRD controller developer, I want to test the controller without fake clients.

Control Plane Performance #

As a control plane performance tester, I want to test the performance of the control plane at a low cost.

What do we want? #

• Low cost simulation any cluster.
• Use like a real cluster.
• Customizable emulation.
• Runs in any environment.
• Fast startup.
• Easy to use.

Predecessor #
