Hi James, Stuart: I started Quiche after taking a look at Fact, actually; the difference between what I'm proposing and Fact is that the latter is a standalone test framework, whereas the random-testing part of Quiche (property) and Fact (fact) could, IMHO, be built on top of test-is.
I've not seen ClojureCheck before -- thanks for the pointer! Will definitely contact both authors and see if we can get a common QuickCheck port into contrib. And yes, a separate namespace is most likely a good idea. Regards, -- Michel Salim On Feb 23, 7:26 pm, Vincent Foley <vfo...@gmail.com> wrote: > I'm definitely interested.
