JSVerify

Property-based checking. Like QuickCheck.

Getting Started

Install the module with: npm install jsverify

Synopsis

var jsc = require("jsverify");

// forall (f : bool -> bool) (b : bool), f (f (f b)) = f(b).
var boolFnAppliedThrice =
  jsc.forall("bool -> bool", "bool", function (f, b) {
    return f(f(f(b))) === f(b);
  });

jsc.assert(boolFnAppliedThrice);
// OK, passed 100 tests

Documentation

Usage with mocha

Using jsverify with mocha is easy, just define the properties and use jsverify.assert.

Starting from version 0.4.3 you can write your specs without any boilerplate:

describe("sort", function () {
  jsc.property("idempotent", "array nat", function (arr) {
    return _.isEqual(sort(sort(arr)), sort(arr));
  });
});

Starting from version 0.8.0 you can write the specs in TypeScript. There are typings provided. The drawback is that you cannot use type DSL:

describe("basic jsverify usage", () => {
  jsc.property("(b && b) === b", jsc.bool, b => (b && b) === b);

  jsc.property("boolean fn thrice", jsc.fn(jsc.bool), jsc.bool, (f, b) =>
    f(f(f(b))) === f(b)
  );
});

You can also provide --jsverifyRngState state command line argument, to run tests with particular random generator state.

$ mocha examples/nat.js

1) natural numbers are less than 90:
 Error: Failed after 49 tests and 1 shrinks. rngState: 074e9b5f037a8c21d6; Counterexample: 90;

$ mocha examples/nat.js --grep 'are less than' --jsverifyRngState 074e9b5f037a8c21d6

1) natural numbers are less than 90:
   Error: Failed after 1 tests and 1 shrinks. rngState: 074e9b5f037a8c21d6; Counterexample: 90;

Erroneous case is found with first try.

Usage with jasmine

Check jasmineHelpers2.js for jasmine 2.0.

API Reference

Testing shows the presence, not the absence of bugs.

Edsger W. Dijkstra

To show that propositions hold, we need to construct proofs. There are two extremes: proof by example (unit tests) and formal (machine-checked) proof. Property-based testing is somewhere in between. We formulate propositions, invariants or other properties we believe to hold, but only test it to hold for numerous (randomly generated) values.

Types and function signatures are written in Coq/Haskell-influenced style: C# -style List<T> filter(List<T> v, Func<T, bool> predicate) is represented by filter(v: array T, predicate: T -> bool): array T in our style.

Methods and objects live in jsc object, e.g. shrink.bless method is used by

var jsc = require("jsverify");
var foo = jsc.shrink.bless(...);

Methods starting with .dot are prototype methods:

var arb = jsc.nat;
var arb2 = jsc.nat.smap(f, g);

jsverify can operate with both synchronous and asynchronous-promise properties. Generally every property can be wrapped inside functor, for now in either identity or promise functor, for synchronous and promise properties respectively.

Properties

• forall(arbs: arbitrary a ..., userenv: (map arbitrary)?, prop : a -> property): property

  Property constructor

• check (prop: property, opts: checkoptions?): result

  Run random checks for given prop. If prop is promise based, result is also wrapped in promise.

  Options:

  • opts.tests - test count to run, default 100
  • opts.size - maximum size of generated values, default 50
  • opts.quiet - do not console.log
  • opts.rngState - state string for the rng

  The result is true if check succeeds, otherwise it's an object with various fields:

  • counterexample - an input for which property fails.
  • tests - number of tests run before failing case is found
  • shrinks - number of shrinks performed
  • exc - an optional exception thrown by property function
  • rngState - random number generator's state before execution of the property

• assert(prop: property, opts: checkoptions?) : void

  Same as check, but throw exception if property doesn't hold.

• property(name: string, ...)

  Assuming there is globally defined it, the same as:

  it(name, function () {
    jsc.assert(jsc.forall(...));
  }

  You can use property to write facts too:

  jsc.property("+0 === -0", function () {
    return +0 === -0;
  });

• compile(desc: string, env: typeEnv?): arbitrary a

  Compile the type description in provided type environment, or default one.

• sampler(arb: arbitrary a, genSize: nat = 10): (sampleSize: nat?) -> a

  Create a sampler for a given arbitrary with an optional size. Handy when used in a REPL:

  > jsc = require('jsverify') // or require('./lib/jsverify') w/in the project
  ...
  > jsonSampler = jsc.sampler(jsc.json, 4)
  [Function]
  > jsonSampler()
  0.08467432763427496
  > jsonSampler()
  [ [ [] ] ]
  > jsonSampler()
  ''
  > sampledJson(2)
  [-0.4199344692751765, false]

• throws(block: () -> a, error: class?, message: string?): bool

  Executes nullary function block. Returns true if block throws. See assert.throws

• assertForall(arbs: arbitrary a ..., userenv: (map arbitrary)?, prop : a -> property): void

  Combines 'assert' and 'forall'. Constructs a property with forall from arguments, then throws an exception if the property doesn't hold. Options for 'assert' cannot be set here - use assert(forall(...)) if you need that.

• checkForall(arbs: arbitrary a ..., userenv: (map arbitrary)?, prop : a -> property): result

  Combines 'check' and 'forall'. Constructs a property with forall from arguments, and returns a value based on if the property holds or not. See 'check' for description of return value.

  Options for 'check' cannot be set here - use check(forall(...)) if you need that.

Types

• generator a is a function (size: nat) -> a.
• show is a function a -> string.
• shrink is a function a -> [a], returning smaller values.
• arbitrary a is a triple of generator, shrink and show functions.
  • { generator: nat -> a, shrink : a -> array a, show: a -> string }

Blessing

We chose to represent generators and shrinks by functions, yet we would like to have additional methods on them. Thus we bless objects with additional properties.

Usually you don't need to bless anything explicitly, as all combinators return blessed values.

See perldoc for bless.

DSL for input parameters

There is a small DSL to help with forall. For example the two definitions below are equivalent:

var bool_fn_applied_thrice = jsc.forall("bool -> bool", "bool", check);
var bool_fn_applied_thrice = jsc.forall(jsc.fn(jsc.bool), jsc.bool, check);

The DSL is based on a subset of language recognized by typify-parser:

• identifiers are fetched from the predefined environment.
• applications are applied as one could expect: "array bool" is evaluated to jsc.array(jsc.bool).
• functions are supported: "bool -> bool" is evaluated to jsc.fn(jsc.bool).
• square brackets are treated as a shorthand for the array type: "[nat]" is evaluated to jsc.array(jsc.nat).
• union: "bool | nat" is evaluated to jsc.sum([jsc.bool, jsc.nat]).
  • Note oneof cannot be shrunk, because the union is untagged, we don't know which shrink to use.
• conjunction: "bool & nat" is evaluated to jsc.tuple(jsc.bool, jsc.nat).
• anonymous records: "{ b: bool; n: nat }" is evaluated to jsc.record({ b: jsc.bool, n: jsc.nat }).
• EXPERIMENTAL: recursive types: "rec list -> unit | (nat & list)".

Arbitrary data

• .smap(f: a -> b, g: b -> a, newShow: (b -> string)?): arbitrary b

  Transform arbitrary a into arbitrary b. For example:

  g should be a right inverse of f, but doesn't need to be complete inverse. i.e. f doesn't need to be invertible, only surjective.

  var positiveIntegersArb = nat.smap(
    function (x) { return x + 1; },
    function (x) { return x - 1; });

  var setNatArb =  jsc.array(jsc.nat).smap(_.uniq, _.identity);

  Right inverse means that f(g(y)) = y for all y in Y. Here Y is a type of arrays of unique natural numbers. For them

  _.uniq(_.identity(y)) = _.uniq(y) = y

  Opposite: g(f(x)) for all x in X, doesn't need to hold. X is arrays of natural numbers:

  _.identity(_uniq([0, 0])) = [0]] != [0, 0]

  We need an inverse for shrinking, and the right inverse is enough. We can always pull back smapped value, shrink the preimage, and map or push forward shrunken preimages again.

• bless(arb: {...}): arbitrary a

  Bless almost arbitrary structure to be proper arbitrary. Note: this function mutates argument.

  Example:

  var arbTokens = jsc.bless({
    generator: function () {
      switch (jsc.random(0, 2)) {
        case 0: return "foo";
        case 1: return "bar";
        case 2: return "quux";
      }
    }
  });

  Mutually recursive definitions. Every reference to a sibling arbitrary should go through the tie function.

  { arb1, arb2 } = jsc.letrec(function (tie) {
    return {
      arb1: jsc.tuple(jsc.int, jsc.oneof(jsc.const(null), tie("arb2"))),
      arb2: jsc.tuple(jsc.bool, jsc.oneof(jsc.const(null), tie("arb1"))),
    }
  });

jsc.property("small array of small natural numbers", "small (array nat)", function (arr) {
  return Array.isArray(arr);
});

jsc.property("small array of normal natural numbers", "(small array) nat", function (arr) {
  return Array.isArray(arr);
});

Restricting arbitraries

• suchthat(arb: arbitrary a, userenv: env?, p : a -> bool): arbitrary a Arbitrary of values that satisfy p predicate. It's advised that p's accept rate is high.

Generator functions

A generator function, generator a, is a function (size: nat) -> a, which generates a value of given size.

Generator combinators are auto-curried:

var xs = jsc.generator.array(jsc.nat.generator, 1); // ≡
var ys = jsc.generator.array(jsc.nat.generator)(1);

In purely functional approach generator a would be explicitly stateful computation: (size: nat, rng: randomstate) -> (a, randomstate). JSVerify uses an implicit random number generator state, but the value generation is deterministic (tests are reproducible), if the primitives from random module are used.

• generator.bless(f: nat -> a): generator a

  Bless function with .map and .flatmap properties.

• .map(f: a -> b): generator b

  Map generator a into generator b. For example:

  positiveIntegersGenerator = nat.generator.map(
    function (x) { return x + 1; });

• .flatmap(f: a -> generator b): generator b

  Monadic bind for generators. Also flatMap version is supported.

• generator.constant(x: a): generator a

• generator.combine(gen: generator a..., f: a... -> b): generator b

• generator.oneof(gens: list (generator a)): generator a

• generator.recursive(genZ: generator a, genS: generator a -> generator a): generator a

• generator.pair(genA: generator a, genB: generator b): generator (a, b)

• generator.either(genA: generator a, genB: generator b): generator (either a b)

• generator.unit: generator ()

  unit is an empty tuple, i.e. empty array in JavaScript representation. This is useful as a building block.

• generator.tuple(gens: (generator a, generator b...)): generator (a, b...)

• generator.sum(gens: (generator a, generator b...)): generator (a | b...)

• generator.array(gen: generator a): generator (array a)

• generator.nearray(gen: generator a): generator (array a)

• generator.dict(gen: generator a): generator (dict a)

Shrink functions

A shrink function, shrink a, is a function a -> [a], returning an array of smaller values.

Shrink combinators are auto-curried:

var xs = jsc.shrink.array(jsc.nat.shrink, [1]); // ≡
var ys = jsc.shrink.array(jsc.nat.shrink)([1]);

• shrink.bless(f: a -> [a]): shrink a

  Bless function with .smap property.

• .smap(f: a -> b, g: b -> a): shrink b

  Transform shrink a into shrink b. For example:

  positiveIntegersShrink = nat.shrink.smap(
    function (x) { return x + 1; },
    function (x) { return x - 1; });

• shrink.noop: shrink a

• shrink.pair(shrA: shrink a, shrB: shrink b): shrink (a, b)

• shrink.either(shrA: shrink a, shrB: shrink b): shrink (either a b)

• shrink.tuple(shrs: (shrink a, shrink b...)): shrink (a, b...)

• shrink.sum(shrs: (shrink a, shrink b...)): shrink (a | b...)

• shrink.array(shr: shrink a): shrink (array a)

• shrink.nearray(shr: shrink a): shrink (nearray a)

Show functions

• show.def(x : a): string

  Currently implemented as JSON.stringify.

• show.pair(showA: a -> string, showB: b -> string, x: (a, b)): string

• show.either(showA: a -> string, showB: b -> string, e: either a b): string

• show.tuple(shrinks: (a -> string, b -> string...), x: (a, b...)): string

• show.sum(shrinks: (a -> string, b -> string...), x: (a | b ...)): string

• show.array(shrink: a -> string, x: array a): string

Random functions

• random(min: int, max: int): int

  Returns random int from [min, max] range inclusively.

  getRandomInt(2, 3) // either 2 or 3

• random.number(min: number, max: number): number

  Returns random number from [min, max) range.

either

• either.left(value: a): either a b

• either.right(value: b): either a b

• either.either(l: a -> x, r: b -> x): x

• either.isEqual(other: either a b): bool

  TODO: add eq optional parameter

• either.bimap(f: a -> c, g: b -> d): either c d

  either.bimap(compose(f, g), compose(h, i)) ≡ either.bimap(g, i).bimap(f, h);

• either.first(f: a -> c): either c b

  either.first(f) ≡ either.bimap(f, utils.identity)

• either.second(g: b -> d): either a d

  either.second(g) === either.bimap(utils.identity, g)

Utility functions

Utility functions are exposed (and documented) only to make contributions to jsverify more easy. The changes here don't follow semver, i.e. there might be backward-incompatible changes even in patch releases.

Use underscore.js, lodash, ramda, lazy.js or some other utility belt.

• utils.isEqual(x: json, y: json): bool

  Equality test for json objects.

• utils.isApproxEqual(x: a, y: b, opts: obj): bool

  Tests whether two objects are approximately and optimistically equal. Returns false only if they are distinguishable not equal. Returns true when x and y are NaN. This function works with cyclic data.

  Takes optional 'opts' parameter with properties:

  • fnEqual - whether all functions are considered equal (default: yes)
  • depth - how deep to recurse until treating as equal (default: 5)

• utils.force(x: a | () -> a) : a

  Evaluate x as nullary function, if it is one.

• utils.merge(x... : obj): obj

  Merge two objects, a bit like _.extend({}, x, y).

FAQ

Why do all the examples import the library as jsc instead of jsv?

Does JSC originate with JSCheck?

A: Yes

smap requires an inverse function, which isn't always practical. Is this complexity related to shrinking?

A: Yes. We don't want to give an easy-to-use interface which forgets shrinking altogether. Note, that right inverse is enough, which is most likely easy to write, even complete inverse doesn't exist.
