There Are Mutants Living in Your Unit Tests

Your unit tests may look flawless, and that impressive code coverage number gives you confidence, but is it giving you a false sense of security? Hidden beneath the surface are subtle code mutations that could expose the real weaknesses in your test coverage. In this session, we will uncover these mutants and show you how Mutation Testing challenges your tests in ways that traditional approaches miss.

While code coverage metrics can be deceiving, Mutation Testing forces your tests to prove their worth against various code mutations that alter logic and behavior. You will discover that high coverage does not always mean high quality. We will dive deep into how you can strengthen your test suite, identifying gaps you never knew existed.

Do not just trust the numbers; mutate your code and see if your tests can survive!
