"A digital graphic design with a deep purple space-themed background featuring small stars and dots. The text 'MoT' is displayed in white, with the letter 'O' stylised as a golden planet with rings. Below, 'MUNICH' is written in italicised white text. In the lower section, a cartoon astronaut with a smiling red face is holding the German flag, wearing a white spacesuit with purple details. The design has a futuristic and playful theme."

I wonder if (1) any one has done any study on the strength of type declarations on a program (or strength of types in general) and (2) if there are other metrics one could use for evaluating the strength of types.

The newest feature I've added to the upcoming Pest Mutation Testing plugin, is already one of my favourites: "--retry" 😍

It runs the mutations previously survived first, to have a really fast feedback loop. 🚀

It behaves like `--retry` in Pest.

In a previous life, I was a big fan of #mutationtesting.

I found these two crates in #Rust for this:

* cargo-mutants: mutants.rs
* mutagen: github.com/llogiq/mutagen

Has anybody any experience with any of them? Or something else?

...another tool that can help and it's called #mutationtesting. For example, in the .NET space you can use Stryker.NET to automatically apply a bunch of code modifications and then see whether your current test suite is complete enough to catch those artificial bugs. It does take quite some...
