## What it is
Radamsa is a general-purpose fuzzer that mutates input data to test software robustness against malformed input. This GitHub repository is a stub; the project has moved to GitLab (akihe/radamsa).

## Use cases
- fuzz test a file parser with malformed inputs
- generate mutated test cases for protocol handling
- test crash resilience of a CLI tool
- fuzz network protocol implementations
- find input-handling bugs in my application

## When to choose
- you need a lightweight, scriptable black-box fuzzer
- you want mutation-based fuzzing without instrumentation
- you need to fuzz arbitrary file or data formats

## When to avoid
- you need coverage-guided fuzzing like AFL or libFuzzer
- you want an actively developed project on GitHub
- you need structured grammar-aware fuzzing

## Facets
- artifact type: cli-tool
- maturity: maintenance
- function: fuzzing, testing, security
- domain: security, testing, developer-tools
- platform: windows, cli, cross-platform
- tags: fuzzer, mutation-testing, robustness-testing, moved-to-gitlab, linux, macos
