Instructions to Run the Codes

Prerequisites

• To install MutPy (for Mutation testing in Python) you need to run:

  pip install mutpy

• Use this link to install Maven (for Mutation testing in Java)

MutPy (Python)

1. Navigate to the Code/Python (MutPy)/Unit directory (MutPy only supports unit testing not integration for integration testing we have manually created mutations).

2. Run the following command in the terminal:

   mut.py --target numAnalysis --unit-test tester -m --runner pytest --report-html Output/

3. View the mutation testing results in the corresponding folder by just opening index.html.

PIT (Java)

1. Create project using

   mvn archetype:generate -DgroupId=com.mycompany.app -DartifactId=my-app -DarchetypeArtifactId=maven-archetype-quickstart -DarchetypeVersion=1.4 -DinteractiveMode=false
   cd my-app

2. Navigate to the Code/Java (PIT)/ directory choose either Unit or Integration and copy pom.xml, App.java and AppTest.java.

3. To run the test cases, use:

   mvn package

4. Run the following command for mutation testing:

   mvn test-compile org.pitest:pitest-maven:mutationCoverage

5. View the mutation testing results in target/pit-reports/index.html.
