Lecture
This lecture delves into advanced software testing techniques, focusing on property-based testing. The instructor discusses the shortcomings of traditional tests and introduces property-based testing as a way to ensure code correctness. The lecture covers differential testing, mutational testing, crash testing, and fuzzing, explaining how each technique can be used to identify bugs and improve software quality. The instructor also demonstrates the use of ScalaCheck for generating random inputs and testing code without explicit specifications, encouraging students to explore these techniques for effective software testing.
