The D version will be called dashcheck<https://github.com/mcandre/dashcheck>

QuickCheck is one of the good things of Haskell.

I have raised the topic few times:
http://www.digitalmars.com/d/archives/digitalmars/D/QuickCheck-like_in_Phobos_131256.html
http://www.digitalmars.com/d/archives/digitalmars/D/Re_Unit_Testing_for_D_._72154.html

I remember someone has already written one or two D versions of QuickCheck-like (probably D1), but it didn't get a lot of interest in the D newsgroups. One of them:

I wrote a pretty complete port of Haskell's Quickcheck some month ago.
https://github.com/dawgfoto/qcheck
The main function quickcheck takes the testee as first template parameter
and a bunch of policies. It will use getArbitraryTuple to construct the parameters of the testee. It should be able to construct a random instance of any type out of the box, but you can also pass generators with the policies and they will be used instead. There is also a Policy RandomizeMembers which will set aggregate members to random values
after construction.
The testee might return a boolean result or an enum QCheckResult which has a third entry
QCheckResult.Reject.

There is a lot of nice code floating around. I wish there was a place where Andrew and others would have easily found your work under tags like "QuickCheck", "Haskel" and "unit test". Some website with a package manager that can also check if my checked out version of the code is still up-to-date or if there are updates and new features. It doesn't matter if the 'package' is marked as experimental. Sometimes you just get an idea for a library and want to see if someone is already working on it. Or you just browse the available packages for D to get some inspiration on topics like unit testing, serialization or web frameworks.
