> Hi, really like the new tests for the malformed variants. > > For the fuzzing though, I'm wondering if we considered using something more robust like [AFL](https://rust-fuzz.github.io/book/afl.html). Afl does coverage guided fuzzing which should be more effective at finding weird edge cases than just flipping bits at random, because it can use code coverage to determine which paths to take when mutating test cases. It also gets us test minimization for free I do agree! I initially planned to include something like afl, and thought maybe I could extend that functionality in this PR with more direction from you and @alamb, but Andrew states a very good point that we should probably make a new ticket and extend that to the crate. If you guys want, I can make a new PR making that setup -- This is an automated message from the Apache Git Service.
