Synopsis

Property-based testing allows you to write properties that describeyour code's behavior, leaving the task of test case generation and property evaluation to the testing tool. ScalaCheck is a property-based testing tool for the Java Platform that was originally inspired by Haskell's QuickCheck.

This book aims to introduce and promote the idea of property-based testing and to be a comprehensive guide to ScalaCheck itself.

Property-based testing requires a slightly different way of thinking about tests and specifications compared to traditional testing tools such as JUnit. This book will help you learn how to take advantage of this valuable complement to traditional testing techniques.
