MuClipse Description

An open source mutation testing plug-in for Eclipse MuClipse is an open source and free Eclipse Plugin which will provide developers with a bridge between the existing MuJava mutation engine and the Eclipse IDE.MuClipse is a reincarnation of the MuJava tool in the form of an Eclipse plug in. The mutation process requires a large amount of meta-language manipulation. Since mutation operators act on the source code, the produced mutant has to then be compiled before it can be run against the test cases. In addition, mutation testing requires that the mutant's source code not be on the Java classpath if you are attempting to "kill" it. Both of these steps require very specific Java runtime settings, which are handled by the configurations that come with the MuClipse installation.MuClipse provides advances for the MuJava system in the areas of usability and compatibility. The following improvements help explain its motivation:· Classpath Management· Directory Structure Configuration· Runtime Configuration· Integrated GUI-based Results· Compatibility with jUnit TestCasesNOTE: MuClipse does NOT work with Java v1.5 code features. If you have code which is Java v1.4.2-compliant (an easy thing to check) you can still use MuClipse. Otherwise, please refrain from downloading. Requirements: · Java
