Readme for quickcheck-dynamic-4.0.0

[back to package description]

quickcheck-dynamic

A library for testing stateful programs using QuickCheck and dynamic logic.

Background

This library was initially designed by QuviQ in collaboration with IOG to provide a dedicated test framework for Plutus "Smart contracts". As the need of a Model-Based Testing framework arises in quite a lot of contexts, it was deemed useful to extract the most generic part as a standalone package with no strings attached to Plutus or Cardano.

Usage

  • Documentation is currenly mostly provided inline as Haddock comments. Checkout StateModel and DynamicLogic modules for some usage instructions.
  • For a concrete standalone example, have a look at the Registry and RegistryModel module from the test suite, which respectively implement and model a multithreaded Thread registry inspired by the Erlang version of QuickCheck described in this article
  • For more documentation on how to quickcheck-dynamic is used to test Plutus DApps, check this tutorial.
  • Apart from Plutus, this library is now in use in the Hydra project to verify the Head Protocol implementation with respect to the original research paper.
