Property-based testing (PBT) verifies software correctness by checking that specific properties hold across a wide variety of randomly generated inputs. Despite its apparent usefulness, we lack an overview of how PBT is utilized in the Java ecosystem. In this study, we investigated seven repositories using the jqwik framework. We analyzed 84 PBTs to understand the types of properties developers typically test, their use of generators and shrinkers, and the role of PBT in broader testing strategies. Our findings show that PBT remains a small part of most test suites, often representing less than 2% of the total number of tests. Developers tend to focus on mutation, invariant, and round trip as the properties they test, frequently using custom generators combined with filtering but never implementing custom shrinkers. We conclude that property-based testing is not being utilized to its full potential in Java projects and highlight areas for future research, including the impact of filtering, the potential of custom shrinkers, and the overall effectiveness of property-based testing.
