Fuzzing D code with LDC

• katastic 9y ago
  I am consistently impressed with the feature-set and simplicity of D. A system language that can run code with the ease-of-use of Javascript. I'd need paragraphs to describe all the features I use that I didn't have before in C++. (Modules?!) I had no plans for trying "Fuzz Testing" before, but I'm definitely going to spend an evening trying it out. It fits well within D's natural language support for unit testing, contract programming, and compile-time function evaluation.

  This is bizarre. The comment by katastic, quoted below, is dead. I see no reason why it should be. I don't know how else to report this, so if the mods catch this, feel free to delete my comment and restore katastic's. Edit: it's undead now, never mind.

    If you have enough karma you can "report" it by clicking on the comment date and clicking "vouch". "vouch" is the opposite of flag and will automatically unkill it if enough people vouch for it.

  > A not-so-well-written article about the fuzzing capability recently added to LDC, using LLVM’s libFuzzer. Compiling code with -fsanitize=fuzzer adds control-flow instrumentation used to guide the fuzzing and links-in the libFuzzer library that drives the fuzz testing (same as Clang). -fsanitize=fuzzer is available from LDC 1.4.0, not on Windows. LDC 1.6.0 was used for the examples in this article.
