Testing what should work, not what should not fail
When evolving software we may introduce new corner cases that can pass
unnoticed through the test cases in our automated test suite. Since
developers rely on other's test suites when changing their code, the
more developers work on a module, the more likely it is they slip a bug
trough the test suite; that's something we though we had to live with.
However, property based testing is emerging as a new hope, our last
experiences say that it helps to create test suites more robust to
software evolution without forcing us to write tons of "just-in-case
test cases."
