🚀 Feature Request

QuickCheck recently added a new function called checkCoverage

It is an enhancement of fast-check's fc.statistics functionality, but will use statistical analysis to verify that we get enough test cases for each category.

Motivation

This conference presentation video by John Hughes explains the motivation for the feature: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=NcJOiQlzlXQ&t=

The feature is discussed near the end of the video, but I highly recommend watching the whole talk, it is very interesting. In fact I think it might be a useful addition to add a link to this talk to the list of references that fast-check documentation links to

Thank you

It would be a really great feature to add into fast-check. It's certainly one of the most important issue with property based testing: sometimes we think that we cover 'all' cases regularly while we only cover some in very rare cases.

The feature is already tracked by #342
