Abstract: The goal of software testing analysis is to validate that an
implementation satisfies its specifications. Many errors in
software are caused by generalizable flaws in the source code.
Property-based testing assures that a given program is free of
the specified generic flaws. Property-based testing uses property
specifications and a data-flow analysis of the program to
guide evaluation of test executions for correctness and completeness.
