Property-Based Testing in Erlang with PropEr

Many Erlang projects rely on traditional unit tests, which often miss subtle edge cases. Property-based testing offers a powerful alternative to uncover these elusive bugs and significantly enhance code reliability. This course will equip you with the foundational knowledge and practical skills to integrate property-based testing into your Erlang development workflow, leading to more resilient and trustworthy applications. What you'll learn: * Understand the fundamental concepts and advantages of property-based testing. * Configure and integrate the PropEr framework into Erlang projects using rebar3. * Design and implement effective properties to test Erlang code logic. * Generate diverse test data and explore edge cases with PropEr's powerful generators. * Apply advanced PropEr features, including stateful testing and custom shrinking strategies. * Practice debugging property failures and interpreting test results for robust code. The course begins by establishing the core principles of property-based testing, then guides you through the setup and practical application of PropEr within an Erlang project environment. You will explore various testing scenarios and advanced techniques to build comprehensive and reliable test suites. This course is designed for Erlang developers who are new to property-based testing and want to learn how to apply this powerful technique to improve the quality of their code. No prior experience with property-based testing is required. Start building more reliable Erlang applications today.
