XWiki Leverages STAMP Software Testing Suite
What is it that characterises XWiki application lifecycle management?
XWiki is an open source project born 16 years ago, which is continuously improving through 40 new versions per year. This enterprise wiki provides a platform for application development and offers 700 extensions. All together, it contains more than one million lines of java and javascript code. Every month, nearly 50 contributors are working on Xwiki...

Descartes and Elastest Working Together
Patxi Gortázar, Professor at Universidad Rey Juan Carlos and Elastest project coordinator, joined the latest STAMP plenary meeting in Madrid last October 9th, 2019.
Elastest is providing observability tools to understand what is going on in the code of a given software when it fails. Stamp tools, on their side, improve the quality of the test cases. Applying STAMP Descartes in a Java project can bring useful insights of the mutants that survive, while ElasTest offers accurate observability tools. Using both open source tools together can provide more information about how a DevOps team is performing on test technologies, including mutation testing and software testing automation.
For more information about this integration, read the Elastest article Amplifiying the value of your tests and check out the demo in the Elastest live instance.

Polyglot Applications and Mutation Testing
In your Edge computing, Cloud computing or IoT environment, chances are you're mixing several services written in different languages.
"Multiple modern architectures are now polyglot, with a different language on the server and the clients, or even different languages among microservices", says Martin Monperrus, Professor at KTH.
Google, eBay, Twitter, and Amazon are among the big technology companies that have evolved to support a polyglot microservices architecture. "The essence of a polyglot architecture is to delegate the decision over which technology stack and programming languages to use to the service developers", explains Tripta Gupta in her article entitled Analyzing Polyglot Microservices.
In STAMP, we focus on Java because it's the #1 language for server-side enterprise applications. However, several mutation testing tools are now centered on popular development languages, including:
- Infection, a mutation testing tool for PHP
- MutPy and Mutmut, mutation testing tools for Python
- Muter, a mutation testing tool for Swift
- Unima, a mutation testing tool for C#
- Stryker Mutator, a mutation testing tool for C#, Scala, JavaScript and Typescript
This list is far from exhaustive. We'd like to ear about your favorite Mutation Testing Tools and your suggestions about STAMP Descartes.
