As the title says, what situation would you be in when you would use
test generators? The example the docs give is this:
fib_test_() ->
[?_assert(fib(0) == 1),
?_assert(fib(1) == 1),
?_assert(fib(2) == 2),
?_assert(fib(3) == 3),
?_assert(fib(4) == 5),
?_assert(fib(5) == 8),
?_assertException(error, function_clause, fib(-1)),
?_assert(fib(31) == 2178309)
].
Why would you use a list of tests instead of just singlely evaluating
each one on its own linein the fib_test() method?
