# Litmus Chaoscenter Charm (part of [Charmed Chaos Engineering](https://canonical-chaos-engineering.readthedocs-hosted.com/en/latest/))

`litmus-chaoscenter-k8s` is a charm that, in conjunction with the [`litmus-auth-k8s` charm](https://discourse.charmhub.io/t/18789), the [`litmus-backend-k8s` charm](https://discourse.charmhub.io/t/18790), and [mongodb-k8s charm](https://discourse.charmhub.io/t/charmed-mongos-k8s-documentation/15817) deploys and operates the control plane of [LitmusChaos](https://docs.litmuschaos.io/docs/introduction/what-is-litmus), an open source platform used for chaos testing.

A `litmus-chaoscenter-k8s` application provides the central user interface for the Litmus solution. It enables users to create, schedule, and manage chaos experiments. It also serves as a façade API endpoint, routing client requests to the `litmus-auth-k8s` and `litmus-backend-k8s` services.

In addition, when integrated with the `litmus-infrastructure-k8s` charm, it automates the provisioning and management of the Litmus execution-plane infrastructure within a Juju model, which is required to run chaos experiments.

Important! This charm is meant to work in conjunction with its counterparts. This documentation only contains charm-specific, and as such relatively low-level documentation. For the solution-level documentation, look at the solution-level [Charmed Chaos Engineering docs](https://canonical-chaos-engineering.readthedocs-hosted.com/en/latest/).
