Years ago, I used mutation testing in a pretty big Java project. Let me tell you: You don't want so much coverage. It's usually a waste of time and makes changes to existing code very annoying. Keep mutation testing/high coverage for a small selection of _very important_ code, but don't overdo it

- looperhacks 1y agoIt's very likely that over the years, it found something. But we didn't have anything to compare against, because it was always mutation testing from day one.
