   There’s some ‘got’ and ‘want’ pointers in https://github.com/golang/go/wiki/TestComments .

   But yeah, I didn’t even realize this was a very Google thing :).

   Does anyone have experience with Gopter, a Golang Property Based testing library? https://github.com/leanovate/gopter

   Randomized testing for Go

   

   Go tests and benchmarks are so easy to write and run: just add TestFoo and BenchmarkFoo functions to a bar_test.go file, and "go test" does the rest. It's currently doable, but it requires a 3rd party library (go-fuzz) and a bit of fluffing around. This will make fuzz testing an equally first-class citizen with standard Go tooling (just add FuzzFoo), and as such we'll probably see a lot more people testing with fuzzing.

   I used go-fuzz in GoAWK and it found several bugs (see https://benhoyt.com/writings/goawk/#fuzz-testing), and almost everyone who's done fuzz testing has similar reports. Certainly go-fuzz has found many, many bugs in Go itself: https://github.com/dvyukov/go-fuzz#trophies

   For what it's worth, I wrote an article for LWN about the upcoming support for built-in fuzzing in Go: https://lwn.net/Articles/829242/ (of course, if you want full details, read the full proposal).

   🏆 Collection of bugs uncovered by fuzzing Rust code

   

   Fuzzing is still very relevant in Rust. It tends to find panics rather than segfaults, but that's still bugs.

   Just to add, we're a heavy user of fuzzing in Diem[1] and we found a good number of bugs thanks to it : )
