A comment on Test-Case Reducers are Fuzzers.

Are "Test-case Reducers" different than "shrinking" in Haskell QuickCheck or Clojure test.check? I.e. are those libs useful for Fuzzing as described in the article?

Shrinkers, reducers, minimizers -- all are the same thing and all operate using the basic ideas outlined in the original Delta Debugging paper.

I'm not sure if the QuickCheck people have explored these ideas, perhaps they'll chime in.
