Mutation testing can improve software reliability, including security
Where are the business challenges solved by mutation testing?
Mutation can help develop excellent tests. Mutation creates subtle variations of the program-under-test (called mutants), and challenges the tester to design or find test inputs that distinguish the mutants from the original. The resulting test set will find faults that lurk in complicated expressions and hard-to-reach sections of the code. Mutation tests ensure statement and branch coverage, but go far beyond them in their ability to reveal faults in the code.

STAMP Workshop for EC-DGIT
Title: STAMP software testing for DevOps pipeline
Speakers: Prof. Benoit Baudry (KTH), Caroline Landry and Oscar Luis Vera Pérez (INRIA)
Place: Brussels
Date: 17/5/2019 2:30PM-5:30PM
After Introduction talks from European Commission DGIT Director, Head of Unit DIGIT B4 and Head of sector Software development, STAMP project coordinator Benoit Baudry presents STAMP EC-funded project. Then Oscar Luis Vera Pérez details Extreme Mutation examples using Descartes, an outcome of the STAMP Project, based on PITest to offer faster mutation analysis results. The EC-DG INFORMATICS Software Engineering team seizes this opportunity to ask technical questions about DevOps mutation testing to improve their own Java test environment.

DSpot meetup in Stockholm
Title: DSpot: Improved software testing using AI
Speaker: Professor Benoit Baudry (KTH)
Place: Birger Jarlsgatan 7, Stockholm
Date: 6/5/2019 17:30-19:00
DSpot analyzes existing test cases and automatically generates variants of these test cases. The variants cover more execution paths and observe more states than the original tests. These tests are meant to be used in the context of regression testing. DSpot can be integrated in the continuous integration to spot issues related to one commit as early as possible.
