MART
is a mutation testing tool for LLVM code. Mart is based on the LLVM compiler infrastructure. It enables the application of mutation testing on languages that can be compiled into LLVM code. MART (LLVM Mutation Artisant) implements the following features:
-
Generate mutants according to user specification (type of mutation and section of the source code) for any programming language supporting compilation to LLVM.)
-
Can approximate redundant mutants using data dependency in order to improve the cost and effectiveness of mutatiion testing (mutant selection).
-
Provides an API for new mutation operations by extending the base class for mutation operators and registering the operation.
-
Docker image available.
