Works related to Mutation Testing The Javalanche framework for mutation testing of Java programs addresses both the problems of efficiency and equivalent mutants. Javalanche is built for efficiency from the ground up, manipulating byte code directly and allowing mutation testing of programs that are several orders of magnitude larger than earlier research subjects. Javalanche addresses the problem of equivalent mutants by assessing the impact of mutations on dynamic invariants: The more invariants impacted by a mutation, the more likely it is to be useful for improving test suites.

We have evaluated Javalanche on seven industrial-size programs, confirming its effectiveness. With less than 3% of equivalent mutants, our approach provides a precise and fully automatic measure of the adequacy of a test suite.
