Don't Go Down the Rabbit Hole: Reprioritizing Enumeration for Property-Based Testing

Abstract

In our implementation, we integrate a state-of-the-art enumeration-based property-based testing framework, LazySearch, with a state-of-the-art combinatorial testing tool, NIST’s ACTS, and demonstrate how it can significantly speed up the effectiveness of testing—up to more than 20× in the case of a prior System F case study from the literature.
