+%%% @doc EXPERIMENTAL support in common-test for calling property based tests.
+%%%
+%%% <p>This module is a first step towards running Property Based testing in the
+%%% Common Test framework. A property testing tool like QuickCheck or PropEr is
+%%% assumed to be installed.</p>
+%%%
+%%% <p>The idea is to have a common_test testsuite calling a property testing
+%%% tool with special property test suites as defined by that tool. In this manual
+%%% we assume the usual Erlang Application directory structure. The tests are
+%%% collected in the application's <c>test</c> directory. The test directory
+%%% has a sub-directory called <c>property_test</c> where everything needed for
+%%% the property tests are collected.</p>
+%%%
+%%% <p>A typical ct test suite using <c>ct_property_test</c> is organized as follows:
+%%% </p>
+%%% ```
+%%% -include_lib("common_test/include/ct.hrl").
+%%%
+%%% all() -> [prop_ftp_case].
+%%%
+%%% init_per_suite(Config) ->
+%%% ct_property_test:init_per_suite(Config).
+%%%
+%%% %%%---- test case
+%%% prop_ftp_case(Config) ->
+%%% ct_property_test:quickcheck(
+%%% ftp_simple_client_server:prop_ftp(Config),
+%%% Config
+%%% ).
