+#### Serde field attributes on function arguments
+
+The `test_fuzz` macro allows [Serde field attributes] to be applied to function arguments. This provides another tool for dealing with difficult types.
+
+The following is an example. Traits `serde::Serialize` and `serde::Deserialize` cannot be derived for `Context` because it contains a `Mutex`. However, `Context` implements `Default`. So applying `#[serde(skip)]` to the `Context` argument causes it to be skipped when serializing, and to take its default value when deserializing.
+
+```rust
+use std::sync::Mutex;
+
+// Traits `serde::Serialize` and `serde::Deserialize` cannot be derived for `Context` because it
+// contains a `Mutex`.
+#[derive(Default)]
+struct Context {
+    lock: Mutex<()>,
+}
+
+impl Clone for Context {
+    fn clone(&self) -> Self {
+        Self {
+            lock: Mutex::new(()),
+        }
+    }
+}
+
+#[test_fuzz::test_fuzz]
+fn target(#[serde(skip)] context: Context, x: i32) {
+    assert!(x >= 0);
+}
+```
+
+Note that when Serde field attributes are applied to an argument, the `test_fuzz` macro performs no other [conversions] on the argument.
