Testing Methodology
Test-Driven Development (TDD)
All tests follow strict TDD principles:
- Fail First: Tests written before implementation
- Red-Green-Refactor: Iterative development cycle
- Real Functionality: No mocking of core operations
- Production Quality: Tests validate actual runtime behavior
Property-Based Testing
Critical components use property-based testing with proptest:
- Device Robustness: Random property configurations
- Kernel Execution: Random grid/block configurations
- Allocator Robustness: Random allocation patterns
- Stream Operations: Random operation sequences
Performance Regression Testing
Each test suite includes performance validation:
- Baseline Requirements: Specific performance thresholds
- Regression Detection: Automatic performance degradation detection
- Throughput Measurement: Operations per second tracking
- Latency Validation: Sub-microsecond operation requirements
Thread Safety Validation
Comprehensive concurrency testing:
- Data Race Detection: Multi-threaded access patterns
- Deadlock Prevention: Complex synchronization scenarios
- Atomic Operations: Correctness under high contention
- Resource Sharing: Cross-thread resource coordination

Implementation Notes
Mock vs Real Implementation
- Mock Devices: Used for isolated testing without GPU hardware
