Ah, ok, now I understand. Ok, I wasn't talking about that. From what I understand about property based testing it's sort of half way between regular example based testing and formal proofs: It tries to prove a statement but instead of a symbolic proof it does it stohastically via a set of examples?
Unfortunately, I'm not aware of a good property based testing library in Ruby, although it would be useful to have one.
Even so I'm guessing that property based testing in practice would be too resource intensive to test the entire application with it? You'd probably only test critical domain logic components and use regular example tests for the rest.
