The effectiveness of mutation testing depends heavily on the types of faults that the mutation operators are designed to represent. Therefore, the quality of the mutation operator...
Fault insertion based techniqueshave been used for measuring test adequacy and testability of programs. Mutation analysis inserts faults into a program with the goal of creating m...
