dc.description.abstract | Mutation testing is an effective but costly testing technique. Several studies have observed that
some mutants can be redundant and therefore removed without affecting its effectiveness. Sim ilarly, some mutants may be more effective than others in guiding the tester on the creation of
high-quality test cases. On the basis of these findings, we present an assessment of C++ class
mutation operators by classifying them into 2 rankings: the first ranking sorts the operators on the
basis of their degree of redundancy and the second regarding the quality of the tests they help to
design. Both rankings are used in a selective mutation study analysing the trade-off between the
reduction achieved and the effectiveness when using a subset of mutants. Experimental results
consistently show that leveraging the operators at the top of the 2 rankings, which are different,
lead to a significant reduction in the number of mutants with a minimum loss of effectiveness. | es |
