Description
[`hypothesis`](https://hypothesis.readthedocs.io/en/latest/) is a property-based testing library that generates test cases automatically, covering a wide range of input scenarios. This approach helps uncover edge cases and unexpected behaviors that might be missed with manually written tests.
[`deal`](https://github.com/life4/deal) is a contract-based programming library that enforces a [Design by contract (DbC)](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Design_by_contract) approach for functions, specifying preconditions, postconditions, and invariants. This ensures that functions behave as expected, making the codebase more robust and predictable. Additionally, Deal has an experimental feature for formal verification, which provides mathematical proof of code correctness, further enhancing reliability.

Research direction
The issue does not name any files, tests, or entry points in mesa-frames. First inspect the existing test layout and project dependencies, then define which code should use hypothesis and deal; done should include an agreed scope and corresponding property-based or contract tests.
