👉 Error engineering is a method used to intentionally introduce errors into a system or process to study and understand how the system responds to these errors. By simulating various types of faults, such as data corruption, network failures, or software bugs, researchers can gain insights into the robustness and reliability of the system under adverse conditions. This approach helps in identifying vulnerabilities, improving error detection and correction mechanisms, and enhancing overall system resilience. It is particularly valuable in fields like software engineering, cybersecurity, and distributed systems where understanding and mitigating errors is crucial for maintaining functionality and safety.
