<ul><li>kube-scheduler-simulator is a tool developed for simulating the Kubernetes scheduler's behavior and decisions.</li><li>It allows users to test scheduling constraints, configurations, and custom plugins.</li><li>The tool aims to help users understand the scheduler's inner workings and define appropriate scheduling constraints.</li><li>It offers a way to create a simulated cluster environment to test the scheduler without affecting real workloads.</li><li>Users can inspect the scheduler's internal decisions and see how plugins influence Pod scheduling.</li><li>Integrating custom plugins or extenders into the simulator's debuggable scheduler is supported.</li><li>The simulator allows users to test new scheduler versions in a production-like environment before deployment.</li><li>Use cases include examining scheduling constraints, assessing cluster behavior with configuration changes, and testing custom plugins.</li><li>Getting started with the simulator only requires Docker installation, and no Kubernetes cluster is needed.</li><li>Contributions and feedback for the kube-scheduler-simulator are welcome on the GitHub repository maintained by Kubernetes SIG Scheduling.</li></ul>
