Can I run mutation tests on specific files?

Yes, you can target specific modules or services to focus your testing efforts on the most critical parts of your application.

How does this skill identify surviving mutants?

It modifies code logic (e.g., changing a '>' to a '<') and runs your tests; if the tests still pass, the mutant has 'survived,' indicating a weakness in your test suite.

What is mutation testing compared to code coverage?

While code coverage measures which lines were executed, mutation testing measures if the tests actually notice when the logic on those lines changes, providing a better metric for test quality.

What does a 'mutation score' represent?

A mutation score is the percentage of introduced mutations that were successfully detected (killed) by your test suite. A higher score indicates more robust tests.

安全与测试

Evaluates test suite effectiveness by introducing code mutations to identify coverage gaps and improve test quality.

关于

The Mutation Test Runner skill empowers Claude to perform advanced mutation testing, a technique that assesses how well your tests actually detect bugs. By deliberately introducing small changes or 'mutations' into your source code and running your test suite against them, the skill identifies 'surviving mutants' that your tests failed to catch. This provides a much deeper insight into test effectiveness than standard line coverage, allowing developers to calculate mutation scores and systematically strengthen their test suites by adding more robust assertions and test cases.
