The first one is through a small set of test cases that can be found in [test/regular.test.js](https://github.com/maurobringolf/@webassemblyjs/floating-point-hex-parser/blob/master/test/regular.test.js). The second one is non-deterministic (sometimes called *fuzzing*): - -1. Generate a random IEEE754 double precision value `x`. -1. Compute its representation `y` in floating point hexadecimal format using the C standard library function `printf` since C supports this format. -1. Give both values to JS testcase and see if `parseHexFloat(y) === x`. - -By default one `npm test` run tests 100 random samples. If you want to do more, you can set the environment variable `FUZZ_AMOUNT` to whatever number of runs you'd like. Because it uses one child process for each sample, it is really slow though. For more details about the randomized tests see [the source](https://github.com/maurobringolf/@webassemblyjs/floating-point-hex-parser/tree/master/test/fuzzing). - -## Links - -* [maurobringolf.ch/2017/12/hexadecimal-floating-point-notation/](https://maurobringolf.ch/2017/12/hexadecimal-floating-point-notation/) - -* [github.com/xtuc/js-webassembly-interpreter/issues/32](https://github.com/xtuc/js-webassembly-interpreter/issues/32) - -* [github.com/WebAssembly/design/issues/292](https://github.com/WebAssembly/design/issues/292) |
