Property based testing
Hi All,
Is there any property based testing framework for flink like
'SparkTestingBase' for spark?
Would also be useful to know what are some of the standard testing
practices for data testing for flink pipelines.
regards

Oh great! Thanks, Aaron that was quite clear.
I will give it a try!

Hey,
I've used ScalaCheck to test flink applications. Basic idea is:
* use ScalaCheck to generate some kind of collection
* use `fromCollection` in `StreamExecutionEnvironment` to create a
`DataStream`
* use `DataStreamUtils.collect` as a sink
* plug my flink logic between the collection source and the collection sink
* make a ScalaCheck property assertion based on the input collection and
output collection.
Possible to wrap all that in a single method in Scala. LMK if you have any
more questions or any of this was not clear!
(note: not sure how to do this in Java).
Best,
Aaron Levin
