Introduction

In this tutorial we learn how to install libghc-quickcheck-classes-base-prof on Debian 12.

What is `libghc-quickcheck-classes-base-prof`

libghc-quickcheck-classes-base-prof is:

This libary is a minimal variant of quickcheck-classes that only provides laws for typeclasses from base. The main purpose of splitting this out is so that primitive can depend on quickcheck-classes-base in its test suite, avoiding the circular dependency that arises if quickcheck-classes is used instead.

This library provides QuickCheck properties to ensure that typeclass instances adhere to the set of laws that they are supposed to. There are other libraries that do similar things, such as genvalidity-hspec and checkers. This library differs from other solutions by not introducing any new typeclasses that the user needs to learn.

/Note:/ on GHC < 8.5, this library uses the higher-kinded typeclasses (‘Data.Functor.Classes.Show1’, ‘Data.Functor.Classes.Eq1’, ‘Data.Functor.Classes.Ord1’, etc.), but on GHC >= 8.5, it uses -XQuantifiedConstraints to express these constraints more cleanly.

This package provides a library for the Haskell programming language, compiled for profiling. See http://www.haskell.org/ for more information on Haskell.
