Random generation
data Gen a
show/hide Instances
Generator combinators
sized :: (Int -> Gen a) -> Gen a
Used to construct generators that depend on the size parameter.
resize :: Int -> Gen a -> Gen a
Overrides the size parameter. Returns a generator which uses the given size instead of the runtime-size parameter.
choose :: Random a => (a, a) -> Gen a
Generates a random element in the given inclusive range.
promote :: Monad m => m (Gen a) -> Gen (m a)
Promotes a generator to a generator of monadic values.
suchThat :: Gen a -> (a -> Bool) -> Gen a
Generates a value that satisfies a predicate.
suchThatMaybe :: Gen a -> (a -> Bool) -> Gen (Maybe a)
Tries to generate a value that satisfies a predicate.
oneof :: [Gen a] -> Gen a
Randomly uses one of the given generators. The input list must be non-empty.
frequency :: [(Int, Gen a)] -> Gen a
Chooses one of the given generators, with a weighted random distribution. The input list must be non-empty.
elements :: [a] -> Gen a
Generates one of the given values. The input list must be non-empty.
growingElements :: [a] -> Gen a
Takes a list of elements of increasing size, and chooses among an initial segment of the list. The size of this initial segment increases with the size parameter. The input list must be non-empty.
listOf :: Gen a -> Gen [a]
Generates a list of random length. The maximum length depends on the size parameter.
listOf1 :: Gen a -> Gen [a]
Generates a non-empty list of random length. The maximum length depends on the size parameter.
vectorOf :: Int -> Gen a -> Gen [a]
Generates a list of the given length.
Generators which use Arbitrary
vector :: Arbitrary a => Int -> Gen [a]
Generates a list of a given length.
orderedList :: (Ord a, Arbitrary a) => Gen [a]
Generates an ordered list of a given length.
Generator debugging
sample :: Show a => Gen a -> IO ()
Generates some example values and prints them to stdout.
sample' :: Gen a -> IO [a]
Generates some example values.
Arbitrary and CoArbitrary classes.
class Arbitrary a where
Random generation and shrinking of values.
Methods
arbitrary :: Gen a
A generator for values of the given type.
shrink :: a -> [a]
Produces a (possibly) empty list of all the possible immediate shrinks of the given value.
show/hide Instances
class CoArbitrary a where
Used for random generation of functions.
Methods
coarbitrary :: a -> Gen c -> Gen c
Used to generate a function of type a -> c. The implementation should use the first argument to perturb the random generator given as the second argument. the returned generator is then used to generate the function result. You can often use variant and >< to implement coarbitrary.

Helper functions for implementing arbitrary
arbitrarySizedIntegral :: Num a => Gen a
Generates an integral number. The number can be positive or negative and its maximum absolute value depends on the size parameter.
arbitrarySizedFractional :: Fractional a => Gen a
Generates a fractional number. The number can be positive or negative and its maximum absolute value depends on the size parameter.
arbitraryBoundedIntegral :: (Bounded a, Integral a) => Gen a
Generates an integral number. The number is chosen from the entire range of the type.
arbitraryBoundedRandom :: (Bounded a, Random a) => Gen a
Generates an element of a bounded type. The element is chosen from the entire range of the type.
Helper functions for implementing shrink

Helper functions for implementing coarbitrary
variant :: Integral n => n -> Gen a -> Gen a

Property combinators
mapSize :: Testable prop => (Int -> Int) -> prop -> Property
Changes the maximum test case size for a property.
shrinking
:: Testable prop
=> (a -> [a])shrink-like function.
-> aThe original argument
-> (a -> prop)
-> Property
Shrinks the argument to property if it fails. Shrinking is done automatically for most types. This is only needed weh you want to override the default behavior.
(==>) :: Testable prop => Bool -> prop -> Property
Implication for properties: The resulting property holds if the first argument is False, or if the given property holds.
forAll :: (Show a, Testable prop) => Gen a -> (a -> prop) -> Property
Explicit universal quantification: uses an explicitly given test case generator.
forAllShrink :: (Show a, Testable prop) => Gen a -> (a -> [a]) -> (a -> prop) -> Property
Like forAll, but tries to shrink the argument for failing test cases.
(.&.) :: (Testable prop1, Testable prop2) => prop1 -> prop2 -> Property
Handling failure
whenFail :: Testable prop => IO () -> prop -> Property
Performs an IO action after the last failure of a property.
whenFail' :: Testable prop => IO () -> prop -> Property
Performs an IO action every time a property fails. Thus, if shrinking is done, this can be used to keep track of the failures along the way.
expectFailure :: Testable prop => prop -> Property
Modifies a property so that it is expected to fail for some test cases.
within :: Testable prop => Int -> prop -> Property
Considers a property failed if it does not complete within the given number of microseconds.
Test distribution
label :: Testable prop => String -> prop -> Property
Attaches a label to a property. This is used for reporting test case distribution.
collect :: (Show a, Testable prop) => a -> prop -> Property

Labels a property with a value:

 collect x = label (show x)
classify
:: Testable prop
=> BoolTrue if the test case should be labelled.
-> StringLabel.
-> prop
-> Property
Conditionally labels test case.
cover
:: Testable prop
=> BoolTrue if the test case belongs to the class.
-> IntThe required percentage (0-100) of test cases.
-> StringLabel for the test case class.
-> prop
-> Property
