It’s been quite some time since I’ve been in the business of writing lots of unit tests, but back in the day, I found hypothesis to be a big force multiplier and it uncovered many subtle/embarrassing bugs for me. Recommend. Also easy and intuitive to use.

Hypothesis is also a lot better at giving you 'nasty' floats etc than Haskell's QuickCheck or the relevant Rust and OCaml libraries are. (Or at least used to be, I haven't checked on all of them recently.)

I concur. Hypothesis saved me many times. It also helped me prove the existence of bugs in third party code, since I was able to generate examples showing that a specific function was not respecting certain properties. Without that I would have spent a lot of time trying to manually find an example, let alone the simplest possible example.

Huge second.

I’ve never use pbt and failed to find a new bug. I recommended it in a job interview, they used it and discovered a pretty clear bug on their first test. It’s really powerful.
