DESCRIPTION:The [website](https://hypothesis.works) of the Hypothesis proje
 ct used to boldly assert: *"Normal 'automated' software testing is surpris
 ingly manual. Every scenario the computer runs\, someone had to write by h
 and. Hypothesis can fix this."*\n\nWhile it's debatable whether property-b
 ased testing should fully replace the manual parametrization of tests with
  different inputs and outputs\, there's no doubt that Hypothesis is a powe
 rful tool for uncovering bugs nobody would even have considered looking fo
 r. In fact\, during its development\, the authors of Hypothesis accidental
 ly discovered countless bugs in CPython and libraries\, thus coining the t
 erm *"The Curse of Hypothesis"*.\n\nThe framework\, although incredibly po
 werful\, might seem overwhelming at first. In this talk\, I will demonstra
 te how even simply throwing random strings at functions can reveal surpris
 ing bugs. From there\, we'll progress towards generating more complex data
 \, which will be less daunting than it initially appears. You'll also see 
 how Hypothesis seamlessly integrates with various ecosystems and can be a 
 valuable tool in any developer's toolkit.
