Typically, Travis CI will run `travis-fuzz.sh` on one of the environments the automated tests are configured for.
This is the most time-consuming component of the continuous integration workflow, so it is recommended that you detect
-issues locally, and Travis merely acts as a sanity check.

## How do I run fuzz tests locally?
```shell
cargo update
-cargo install honggfuzz --force
+cargo install --force honggfuzz
```
