Trying to write a property based test to prove ‘js_lib.patch(json_a, elixir_lib.diff(json_a, json_b)) == json_b’
- a , b are maps and I need to check if the diff of (a,b) is equal to b.

I think something like this should probably be close to what you are looking for:
And then inside
JsLibyou’d have some Elixir code that invokes the JS tool from within Elixir.You might need to change
term()into something likeone_of([integer(), boolean(), string(), nil])to restrict the types to only have things that can be JSON-encoded.Writing a generator that can generate deeply nested JSON objects/arrays is also possible, but takes a little more work. (C.f. StreamData.tree/2)

An example of generating JSON using StreamData.
(This might be cleaned up slightly, but could provide a nice starting point.)

Hi, thank you this is helpful. I am using this library for the diffing : GitHub - olafura/json_diff_ex: Diff for JSON in Elixir · GitHub. I want to check if the diff(a,b) is equal to be, I might have miswrote. I believe what you wrote is checking both JS library’s diffing and the elixir diffing of a , b. First week using elixir so thank you for being patient with me.
