          1. clojure friends: i am thinking about spec and generative testing for the a clojure compiler i am working on but not sure how that would work

          first off, does spec support multimethods?

        second, if i need to test e.g. interop, i need to generate ‘(A/B c d) where A is a valid class B is a valid method and c/d are valid args

      do i reflect on all types to get that info? it sounds like a ton of work compared to writing a handful of tests, but maybe im not getting it

    that said the idea of a generatively tested compiler is very exciting
