Wes McKinney commented on ARROW-8492:
-------------------------------------
Given that there is various "batchiness" in the decoding / reconstruction, I
would be concerned that there are edge cases that are not exercised by
hand-coded unit tests.
I think that the primary testing strategy should be hand-coded tests (and you
also need to think about the schema combinations -- required/optional etc.
variations) supplemented by random "roundtrip fuzzing" to suss out incorrectness
