# Mutation Testing

Expert knowledge for mutation testing - validating that your tests actually catch bugs by introducing deliberate code mutations.

## Core Concept

- **Mutants**: Small code changes introduced automatically
- **Killed**: Test fails with mutation (good - test caught the bug)
- **Survived**: Test passes with mutation (bad - weak test)
- **Score**: Percentage of mutants killed (aim for 80%+)

## TypeScript/JavaScript (Stryker)

### Vitest Runner

#### Installation

```bash
# Using Bun
bun add -d @stryker-mutator/core @stryker-mutator/vitest-runner

# Using npm
npm install -D @stryker-mutator/core @stryker-mutator/vitest-runner
```

#### Configuration

```typescript
// stryker.config.mjs
export default {
  packageManager: 'bun',
  reporters: ['html', 'clear-text', 'progress'],
  testRunner: 'vitest',
  coverageAnalysis: 'perTest',
  mutate: ['src/**/*.ts', '!src/**/*.test.ts'],
  thresholds: { high: 80, low: 60, break: 60 },
  incremental: true,
}
```

### Bun Native Runner (`bun test`)

Use when projects use `bun test` directly (not Vitest).

#### Requirements

- Bun **>= 1.3.7** (needs TestReporter WebSocket events from Bun PR #25986)
- `@stryker-mutator/core ^9.6.1`

#### Installation

```bash
bun add -D @hughescr/stryker-bun-runner @stryker-mutator/core
```

#### Configuration

```javascript
// stryker.conf.mjs
export default {
  testRunner: 'bun',
  coverageAnalysis: 'perTest',
  mutate: ['src/**/*.ts', '!src/**/*.test.ts'],
  thresholds: { high: 80, low: 60, break: 60 },
  incremental: true,
  bun: {
    inspectorTimeout: 5000,  // WebSocket Inspector connection timeout (ms)
    // bunPath: '/path/to/bun',  // only if custom Bun install
    // timeout: 30000,           // test timeout (ms)
    // env: { DEBUG: 'true' },
    // bunArgs: ['--bail'],
  },
}
```

#### Key Behaviors

- **Sequential execution**: Runs tests with `--concurrency=1` for accurate per-test coverage. Slower than parallel but required for correct test-to-mutant correlation.
- **Concurrent test patching**: Automatically patches `describe.concurrent()`, `test.concurrent()`, `it.concurrent()` to run sequentially during mutation testing — no code changes needed.
- **Inspector Protocol**: Uses Bun's WebSocket Inspector API to discover tests and correlate coverage.

### Running Stryker

```bash
# Run mutation testing
bunx stryker run

# Incremental mode (only changed files)
bunx stryker run --incremental

# Specific files
bunx stryker run --mutate "src/utils/**/*.ts"

# Open HTML report
open reports/mutation/html/index.html
```

### Example: Weak Test

```typescript
// Source code
function calculateDiscount(price: number, percentage: number): number {
  return price - (price * percentage / 100)
}

// ❌ WEAK: Test passes even if we mutate calculation
test('applies discount', () => {
  expect(calculateDiscount(100, 10)).toBeDefined() // Too weak!
})

// ✅ STRONG: Test catches mutation
test('applies discount correctly', () => {
  expect(calculateDiscount(100, 10)).toBe(90)
  expect(calculateDiscount(100, 20)).toBe(80)
  expect(calculateDiscount(50, 10)).toBe(45)
})
```

## Python (mutmut)

### Installation

```bash
uv add --dev mutmut
```

### Running mutmut

```bash
# Run mutation testing
uv run mutmut run

# Show results
uv run mutmut results

# Show specific mutant
uv run mutmut show 1

# Generate HTML report
uv run mutmut html
open html/index.html
```

## Common Mutation Types

```typescript
// Arithmetic Operator
// Original: a + b → a - b, a * b, a / b

// Relational Operator
// Original: a > b → a >= b, a < b, a <= b

// Logical Operator
// Original: a && b → a || b

// Boolean Li
