SYSTEM DOCUMENTATION & REQUIREMENTS

What problem does it solve?

Haskell property-based testing to systematically uncover invariants using QuickCheck and Hedgehog frameworks, reducing reliance on ad-hoc tests and fragile test suites.

Core Features & Use Cases

  • Property-based testing for pure and impure Haskell code using QuickCheck for general properties.
  • Integrated shrinking and advanced stateful testing with Hedgehog to explore edge cases.
  • Clear guidance for framework selection and practical examples spanning simple to complex verification tasks.

Quick Start

Write and run a small property that asserts a simple identity, such as reversing a list twice yields the original.

FAQPage Schema
How do I automate property-based testing workflows for Haskell code?

You can automate property-based testing workflows for Haskell code using QuickCheck and Hedgehog to verify invariants. This Skill guides property generation and shrinking for tasks ranging from pure functions to stateful systems.

What is the best way to test stateful systems in Haskell with randomized inputs?

The best way to test stateful systems in Haskell with randomized inputs is using Hedgehog for advanced stateful testing and integrated shrinking. This allows you to explore edge cases in impure code effectively.

Does property-based testing in Haskell work with both QuickCheck and Hedgehog?

Yes, property-based testing in Haskell works with both QuickCheck and Hedgehog. This Skill offers integration guidance for both frameworks to help you select the appropriate tool for your verification tasks.

How do I start writing a simple Haskell property test?

To start writing a simple Haskell property test, assert a basic identity such as reversing a list twice yields the original list. This establishes a baseline for property generation before exploring more complex invariants.

Why should I use property-based testing instead of ad-hoc tests for Haskell invariants?

You should use property-based testing instead of ad-hoc tests to systematically uncover Haskell invariants and reduce reliance on fragile test suites. Randomized inputs and shrinking automatically find edge cases that manual tests miss.
