Research direction

The QuickCheck version bound is in the package's Cabal file (optparse-applicative.cabal), in the constraints for the library and test-suite stanzas. Check that file for the upper bound on QuickCheck, then build and run the test suite against QuickCheck 2.17 (for example with cabal build and cabal test). Done when the bound admits 2.17 and the suite still passes.

Written by the indexing model from the issue text.

Description

Bounds currently forbid it, but the test suite builds and runs fine with it.
