I have made code just to look for crashes and I have found bugs and then
turned them into tests.

I think the approach of testing expected behaviour is a must, but we also
need a bit of fuzzing like tests also.

I agree, and it would work kind of a part of documentation /
standardization also.
But it may also be too much work for Benoit.
