Nice. Any updates on this? Is this a good idea?

Thanks. That looks useful.

Controlling growth rates of generators with test.check
Hi all, I am doing some generative testing with test.check and need a way to control the growth rate of data structures (the regular linear growth quickly makes the computations too large for meaningful testing usage). I came up with the following solution to do this: (defn gen-resize Creates a generator that pre-modifies the 'size' pramater with the function f. Use if you want to have the size grow at a different rate from the normal linear scaling. ([f gen] (let [gf (or (:gen gen) gen paramter must be a test.check generator) new-gf (fn [rnd size] (gf rnd (f size)))] (clojure.test.check.generators.Generator. new-gf Normal O(n) growth: (gen/sample gen/s-pos-int 30) = (1 2 3 2 4 5 4 7 6 3 3 7 10 4 8 11 14 12 6 10 9 1 8 21 12 16 25 25 21 6) Controlled O(sqrt(n)) growth: (gen/sample (gen-resize sqrt gen/s-pos-int) 30) = (1 2 2 2 2 4 3 3 3 3 4 3 5 1 2 3 2 4 4 2 2 3 6 6 2 5 5 4 6 3) So it seems to work, but is this a sane / recommended approach?
