Welcome to Hypothesis!
======================

Hypothesis is the property-based testing library for Python. With Hypothesis, you write tests which should pass for all inputs in whatever range you describe, and let Hypothesis randomly choose which of those inputs to check - including edge cases you might not have thought about. For example:

.. code-block:: python

    from hypothesis import given, strategies as st

    @given(st.lists(st.integers() | st.floats()))
    def test_sort_correct(lst):
        # lst is a random list of numbers
        assert my_sort(lst) == sorted(lst)

    test_sort_correct()
