Contracts: Fuzz tests #2152
Description
Stateless fuzzing operates without taking into account the system's internal state between test cases. Each test is run in isolation, with no memory of previous runs. This method focuses on functions or components separately, making it suitable for standalone unit testing.
Stateful fuzzing maintains an awareness of the system's internal state across multiple test cases. It more closely resembles real-world scenarios by taking into account the cumulative impact of previous inputs. This approach seeks to investigate the interconnectedness of various system functions.
