What its author says it does
Copied from the file, not written here
Property-based testing workflow for invariant validation over broad input spaces. Use when correctness depends on rules that must hold across many generated inputs; do not use for narrow deterministic examples only.

Testing Property-Based
Overview
Use this skill to validate invariants beyond hand-picked test cases by combining generators, shrinking, and reproducible seeds.
Scope Boundaries
- Use when input space is large and example-based tests are insufficient.
- Typical requests:
Verify encode/decode roundtrip invariants for arbitrary inputs.Stress aggregate invariants with generated data.Catch edge cases that fixed examples miss.
- Do not use when:
- A small deterministic unit test set is sufficient (
testing-unit). - The primary scope is UI journey validation (
testing-e2e).
- A small deterministic unit test set is sufficient (
Inputs
- Invariants and domain constraints
- Generator strategy and seed reproducibility requirements
- Runtime budget and flaky-risk tolerance
Outputs
- Property definitions and generator coverage strategy
- Decision record for shrinking and seed policy
- Verification checklist with failing-case reproduction guidance
Workflow
- Formalize invariants and invalid-state assumptions.
- Design generators that reflect realistic and adversarial inputs.
- Compare generation/shrinking strategies and choose one.
- Run property tests with reproducible seeds.
- Triages failures with shrunk counterexamples and publish fixes.
Quality Gates
- Core invariants are explicit and testable.
- Generators cover edge and adversarial shapes.
- Failures are reproducible via seed and shrunk case.
- Residual unknowns are documented.
Failure Handling
- Stop when invariants are undefined or contradictory.
- Escalate when generator quality is too weak for meaningful coverage.
