Mutation Testing in PHP: Finding the Gaps PHPUnit Can’t See

1. 1Run a mutation testing tool like Infection to generate mutants of your code
2. 2Use PHPUnit to test the mutated code and identify gaps in your tests
3. 3Analyze the mutation score to determine the effectiveness of your tests
4. 4Refactor your tests to improve the mutation score and ensure better code coverage
5. 5Integrate mutation testing into your CI/CD pipeline to automate the process

Developers and QA engineers can benefit from this knowledge to improve the reliability of their tests and ensure their code is properly validated

💡 Mutation testing can help identify gaps in your tests that traditional testing methods like PHPUnit may miss, ensuring your code is properly validated
