What's the advantage of this over Minikube?
1 comments

Krucible is hosted, so you're not running a VM that's consuming resources and that you have to manage—spinning up Minikube from within a CI environment isn't necessarily the easiest of tasks. With Krucible it's just a single API call to create a Kubernetes cluster. This also allows you to parallelise your test suite easily as you can spin up as many clusters as you need at the same time.

The snapshots feature is also a big differentiator: you can set up a cluster, take a snapshot and then share that with your team so that you're all running identical Kubernetes clusters.
