Testing Kotlin Compiler

In the presentation, the author explains a compiler testing process on the example of Kotlin/Native. Starting from an overview of what a compiler is, we'll move to examples of what can be tested in compilers and how Kotlin/Native is being tested. Different types of testing, including exploratory QA, will be explained. Then the case of using the pict (Pairwise Independent Combinatorial Testing) tool will be presented — it helped the team to clarify coverage and to reduce the amount of autotests.
