Bonus Tipp: Never miss a crucial test again

"So the fundamental proposition of property based testing is when the system gets too complicated, it is not possible for humans to write every test cases. So rather we want these test cases to be generated automatically." - Nikhil Barthwal

In this episode, I chat with Nikhil Barthwal about property-based testing. We go into how property-based testing can uncover the hidden bugs that often slip past human testers. With its capacity to automatically generate a multitude of test cases, this method helps us see beyond typical limitations. Nikhil also shares when property-based testing may not be ideal, like when it incurs high resource costs. He emphasizes that this approach serves as an assistant to testers rather than a replacement, enhancing productivity and reliability.
