Mutant

A mutation testing library for Clojure.

tl;dr: Mutant breaks your code and lets you know if your test suite is still green.

Mutant tries to break your code. It goes through your namespaces and introduces changes to your sources. After each mutation it attempts to run your test suite. If all tests still pass despite the mutation Mutant reports the mutation as a survivor.

Usage

lein-mutate on Clojars

Add the lein-mutate to in the :plugins vector of either your :user profile or your project.clj. Make sure your test suite is green. Then run:

$ lein trampoline mutate

Learn more in the user's guide.
