+
+## Testing Strategy
+
+### Hybrid Approach
+
+Two complementary strategies are used:
+
+**1. Property-Based Testing (PBT)**
+
+- Random graph generation via `qcheck`
+- ~100 test cases per property
+- Graph sizes: 0-15 nodes, 0-30 edges
+- Best for: Structural properties, transformations
+
+**2. Example-Based Testing**
+
+- Specific graph configurations
+- Deterministic, fast execution
+- Best for: Complex algorithms, performance-sensitive operations
+
+### Graph Generators
+
+```gleam
+graph_generator()                    // Random directed/undirected
+undirected_graph_generator()         // Random undirected
+directed_graph_generator()           // Random directed
+graph_generator_custom(kind, n, e)   // Custom size
+```
+
+## Known Issues
+
+### Undirected Edge Removal Asymmetry
+
+**Status:** Documented, planned fix in v4.0
+
+**Behavior (v3.x):**
+
+```gleam
+graph
+|> model.add_edge(0, 1, 10)    // Adds BOTH 0→1 and 1→0
+|> model.remove_edge(0, 1)     // Removes ONLY 0→1
+```
+
+**Workaround:**
+
+```gleam
+graph
+|> model.remove_edge(0, 1)
+|> model.remove_edge(1, 0)      // Must remove both directions
+```
+
+**Reference:** `model.gleam` lines 293-295, 324-328
+
