> Unit tests allow us to test cases we know about and have thought of. Property-based testing allows us to test those, and some cases we haven't thought of -- you're essentially fuzzing a limited subset of the code. {{junit-quickcheck}} makes it easy to write "property-based" tests with generators for the builtin types. You can also constrain input or build custom generators for constrained data.
> I think this would be especially helpful for testing areas like PDX serialization, which should be able to accept any serializable object a user creates.
