Mutation Testing: Did my test break my code ? 🤔

Last week, you spend the last 2 days writing plenty of tests. Your code coverage was 100% so you thought you could safely leave on a weekend ✈️🏖️ But on Monday, your inbox is flooded with new bug reports. What happened!? What did you miss?

Come and discover what Mutation testing is and how can we implement it to ensure the quality of our test suites.
