QuickCheck is a specification-based testing tool for Erlang. QuickCheck Mini is
|
||||
a powerful, but restricted version of QuickCheck. It is released free of charge for
|
||||
anyone interested in learning more about QuickCheck as well as for open source
|
||||
developers that want to ship their code with simple QuickCheck properties.
|
||||

<h2>QuickCheck</h2>
|
||||
|
||||
Programs
|
||||
are tested by writing <i>properties</i> in the source code, such as
|
||||
<pre>
|
||||
prop_reverse() ->
|
||||
?FORALL(Xs,list(int()),
|
||||
lists:reverse(lists:reverse(Xs)) == Xs).
|
||||
</pre>
|
||||
Properties are tested by calling
|
||||
<pre>
|
||||
eqc:quickcheck(prop_reverse())
|
||||
</pre>
|
||||
which generates 100 random test cases and checks that the property
|
||||
returns <tt>true</tt> in every case.
|
||||
|
||||
<p>
|
||||
Functions for writing properties are found in module {@link eqc},
|
||||
while functions for writing test data generators (such as
|
||||
<tt>list(int())</tt> above) are found in module {@link eqc_gen}. Parts
|
||||
of the interface are provided via macros, which are defined in
|
||||
<tt>eqc.hrl</tt>--this file should be included in every module which
|
||||
uses QuickCheck. This header file also imports much of the QuickCheck
|
||||
API, so it can be used without explicit module names.
