       | I've followed similar approach for building a REST API fuzzer for
       | the past 3 years: https://github.com/Endava/cats. Fuzz testing is
       | still not widely adopted considering the obvious benefits and
       | usually minimum setup time. Even if it's java, getting it to
       | native code was a must, so I had to rewrite it from spring to
       | quarkus to get native image compilation out of the box. And focus
       | on the performance bit to be able to run large number of mutation
       | even for large json payloads. Quite a journey.

         | fuzz JSON: https://gitlab.com/michenriksen/jdam

           | and enrich it, so it's good to discover similar tools.

         | main README lead to 404s.

       | Link to the next page is broken, it doesn't add the /fuzzing/
       | prefix. Cool series nonetheless!

       | It is just for me or it is really funny that he writes about
       | fuzzing in his blog and his name is "Michal Melewski"? It is
       | almost "Michal Zalewski"!
