Property-Based Testing with PropEr, Erlang and Elixir (Pragmatic Bookshelf)
Written by Kay Ewbank   
Wednesday, 13 February 2019

By using the PropEr framework in both Erlang and Elixir, this book teaches how to automatically generate test cases, test stateful programs, and change how you design your software for more principled and reliable approaches. Author Fred Hebert shows how you can better explore the problem space, validate the assumptions you make when coming up with program behavior, and expose unexpected weaknesses in your design. 

<ASIN:1680506218>

Most tests only demonstrate that the code behaves how the developer expected it to behave, and therefore carry the same blind spots as their authors when special conditions or edge cases show up. The aim of this book is to show how to see things differently with property tests written in PropEr.
