Kind of like a fuzzer. Not sure if it would be useful for this library? Worth investigating; I hear great things.

What sort of properties would we test?

fitzgen commented 7 years ago

Honestly, I'm not sure.

Now that we have some write support, I guess some round-trip checks would work... given an input, parse it, then checking that writing it and parsing it again gives the same result. Still not sure this is worth the effort though.
