{excuse me for offtop but...}: What's does the idiom 'QuickCheck' mean?

[ValeriusGC]

Hi! Some offtop but i really intrigued. I saw it in the tests:

final qc = new QuickCheck(maxSize: 300, seed: 42);

This class has no fields for constructor arguments, so i am stucked what goal is for them?

hi! it's a property based testing system. there's good information and a some links about it here: https://github.com/polux/propcheck .

sadly, the implementation above hasn't been updated for Dart 2, so I'm currently using a very poor replacement for it in dartz, resulting in less reliable tests until i've found/built a better engine.

I saw that project when I surfed web with this my issue. But his QuickCheck filled with appropriate fields so I understood that approach. As for yours one, this is just stub, isn't it? If so I got it.
Would You give me a favor and explain my another question (#50)? Thanks in advance.

right, yes! the stubs adhere to the original contract in the hope that i will be able to plug in a full implementation eventually.

i'll look into the other tickets when i have a little more time!
