Object-Oriented Mutation to Asses the Quality of Tests

The quality of a test suite can be measured using mutation analysis. Groups of OO mutation operators are proposed for testing object-oriented features. The OO operators applied to UML specification and C++ code are illustrated by an example. Experimental results demonstrate effectiveness of different mutation operators and the reduction of functional test suite.
