How Testing Fuzz Generators Catches Edge Case Exploits
from Software Testing with Fexingo: QA, Automation, and Reliable Software Engineering Hosted by Fexingo
Episode 97 of Software Testing with Fexingo dives into fuzz testing — but not the usual kind. Lucas and Luna explore how to test the fuzz generators themselves, using a real example from Google's OSS-Fuzz pipeline. They walk through how corrupted seed inputs, missing dictionary entries, and generator logic bugs can silently shrink coverage, and share a specific technique: mutation coverage of the generator code. Listeners learn why 'test your tester' is the next frontier in QA, with concrete steps to audit their own fuzz harnesses. #FuzzTesting #Fuzzing #EdgeCases #SoftwareTesting #QA #Automation #Google #OSSFuzz #SeedCorpus #MutationCoverage #GeneratorTesting #ExploitPrevention #TechPodcast #SoftwareEngineering #FexingoBusiness #BusinessPodcast #LucasAndLuna #TestingTools Keep every episode free: buymeacoffee.com/fexingo
