Description
[Hypothesis](https://hypothesis.readthedocs.io/en/latest/) is a testing library that evaluates functions under a range of conditions and evaluates the properties of the result, rather than testing functions with a single input and asserting the numerical value of the result (as is currently done in many places). It can be particularly useful for finding edge cases, which (as we are all well aware), MUSE is currently not very well set up to deal with.
The costs module seems like a good place to start (see [this comment](https://github.com/EnergySystemsModellingLab/MUSE_OS/pull/462#pullrequestreview-2262280761)), but there are probably other places that would benefit. Part of tackling this issue would involve going through the tests to see which areas could benefit from more robust unit tests.
