Runtime verification and automated testing for scientific code

Project description

Paranoid Scientist

Paranoid Scientist is a Python module for verifying scientific software which provides:

  • Runtime verification of entry and exit conditions written in pure Python, including hyperproperties.
  • Conditions specified using pure Python refinement types, i.e. types are defined by predicates.
  • Automated unit testing of individual functions.

To learn more, read the documentation, conceptual FAQs, technical FAQs, or tutorial, or see the paper/preprint for more technical details.
