Fuzzing the Erlang Ecosystem

Explore the world of Erlang fuzzing in this conference talk from Code BEAM Europe 2023. Dive into Erlfuzz, an open-source tool that generates random valid Erlang programs to test various components of the Erlang ecosystem. Learn how Erlfuzz has uncovered over 80 bugs, including more than 60 in erlc. Discover the inner workings of Erlfuzz, the techniques used to detect subtle VM bugs, and how to apply it to test your own tools. Gain insights into the intricacies of Erlang's scoping rules and other language nuances revealed through fuzzing. This 34-minute presentation by Robin Morisset offers valuable knowledge for Erlang developers and those interested in software testing and quality assurance.
