I'm contemplating migrating a write-intensive system from MySQL to Riak. I understand the eventual consistency model and the need to resolve conflicts in application code, especially if allow_mult is true. My concern is that I won't discover all of the conflict scenarios my application code needs to handle until after we're live in production. Are there best practices for producing conflicts in development environment? Is my best option to simulate a large amount of load and see what happens? Should I lower my R or W values? Kill off nodes randomly?
Related question: I'd like to write unit tests for conflict scenarios I anticipate/encounter. Do any of the client libraries come with good mock support or is that something I need to roll myself?
