This week the original friend of the show, Fred Hebert, joins the hosts for a wandering discussion, ostensibly about his fantastic new book Property-Based Testing with PropEr, Erlang, and Elixir: Find Bugs Before Your Users Do by Fred Hebert | The Pragmatic Bookshelf (https://pragprog.com/book/fhproper/property-based-testing-with-proper-erlang-and-elixir) Fred discusses his motivations for writing, maven plugins, and how to write better property based tests. He also shares some opinions on code coverage, test driven development, and elixir’s pipe operators. The Elixir Outlaws now have a Patreon (https://www.patreon.com/user?u=5332239).
