So you want to build a mutation testing system

Introduction

There have been a lot mutation testing systems, but very few have them have seen succesfull use in industry.

It represents some of the things we learnt while creating pitest. The choices made by pitest are not neccessarily the best choices for your system. Some of these choices are appropriate only because of the particular quirks of Java and the JVM, and some of them are simply the first idea that we had.
