Benedict commented on CASSANDRA-7180:
-------------------------------------
I like this idea. We'd have to be careful it didn't introduce an unreasonable
burden of plugging non-issues as it was introduced, but in the long run it
could pay dividends.
> Investigate mutation testing for unit tests

> We might get some useful information from mutation testing tools, possibly
> PIT (http://pitest.org/). The basic idea is to seed faults in the code and
> check to see if the unit tests are able to catch them. If we can get this up
> and running, perhaps it could be run periodically on cassci.datastax.com.
