ESTIMATION OF MUTATION TESTING ROBUST IN DATA MINING

Testing refers to the inspection of software whether it fulfills the desire objectives or not by means of examines the presence of any error/bugs in a program. This paper presents results from experimental studies of object-oriented, class level mutation operators, Class mutation operators modify object oriented programming language feature s such as inheritance, polymorphism, dynamic binding and encapsulation. Several new class-level mutation operators are defined in this paper and an analysis of the number of mutants generated is provided. Techniques for eliminating some equivalent mutants are described and data from an automated tool are provided. One important result is that class-level mutation operators yield far mo re equivalent mutants than traditional, statement- level, and operators
