14 What do these bugs look like? How do we find them? How well did that work?

15 What do these bugs look like?

16 A Type Environment Bug (: sinh (case [Float-Zero Float-Zero] [Positive-Float Positive-Float] [Negative-Float Negative-Float]...))

17 A Type Environment Bug τ₁ τ₂ (: sinh (case [Float-Zero Float-Zero] [Positive-Float Positive-Float] [Negative-Float Negative-Float]...))

18 A Type Environment Bug τ₁ τ₂ 10 5 (: sinh (case [Float-Zero Float-Zero] [Positive-Float Positive-Float] [Negative-Float Negative-Float]...))

19 A Type Environment Bug τ₁ τ₂ 10 5 (: sinh (case [Float-Zero Float-Zero] [Positive-Float Positive-Float] [Negative-Float Negative-Float]...)) cases (integers, complexes, exact rationals)

20 A Type Environment Bug (: sinh (case [Float-Zero Float-Zero] [Positive-Float Positive-Float] [Negative-Float Negative-Float]...))

21 A Type Environment Bug (: sinh (case [Float-Zero Float-Zero] [Positive-Float Positive-Float] [Negative-Float Negative-Float]...)) (sinh e-17) 0.0 : Float-Zero

22 A Type Environment Bug (: sinh (case [Float-Zero Float-Zero] [Nonnegative-Float Nonnegative-Float] [Nonpositive-Float Nonpositive-Float]...)) (sinh e-17) 0.0 : Float-Zero

28 How do we find them?

29 Use random testing PLT Redex

30 (define-language λv [e (e e...) (if0 e e e) x v] [v (λ (x...) e) number] [x (variable-except λ if0)]) PLT Redex

31 PLT Redex (define-language λv [e (e e...) (if0 e e e) x v] [v (λ (x...) e) number] [x (variable-except λ if0)]) (define red (reduction-relation λv...))

32 PLT Redex (define-language λv [e (e e...) (if0 e e e) x v] [v (λ (x...) e) number] [x (variable-except λ if0)]) (redex-check λv v (number? (term v))) counterexample found after 4 attempts: (λ () 1)

33 PLT Redex (define-language λv [e (e e...) (if0 e e e) x v] [v (λ (x...) e) number] [x (variable-except λ if0)]) (redex-check λv v (> (n-google-results (term v)) 20)) counterexample found after 15 attempts: (λ (x y) (+ (λ () 3) 2))

50 How well did that work?

51 Finding Bugs Existing 10+ kloc test suite Found bugs anyway Small random test cases Smaller than user bug reports Even without test case reduction

52 Confidence When Refactoring Fact: programs evolve over time Follow changes with random testing Success stories NaN refactoring Optimizer rewrite

53 The Take-Away Type environments have bugs too! Random testing can help. Redex makes random testing easy.
