In this repository you can find the slides and example code for a presentation I gave for the Scala community of ING. It is basically an introduction to property based testing. And in particular the ScalaCheck library used in conjunction with ScalaTest.
ScalaCheck is a property based testing tool, which allows you to specify properties using predicates such as: ∀s:s.reverse.reverse≡s, which denotes that for all Strings s when you reverse s twice it should equal the original s.
Please see the Slides, which are created using the nice RevealJS.
Maybe even more interesting are the code examples which can be found in the code folder in this repository. There are a couple of files with accompanying tests. PropertiesTest.scala shows the ScalaCheck way of writing an executable test file which checks properties. ReverseExampleTest.scala contain some simple properties using ScalaTest’s GeneratorDrivenPropertyChecks, which using ScalaCheck under the hood. IbanExampleTest.scala contains a more interesting example where an implementation that calculates IBANs from old bank account numbers is tested.
