MutationTest class

This is the primary interface for the mutation testing.

To do a test run, create an instance of this class, then call the method runMutationTest().

Constructors

MutationTest(List<String> inputs, String outputPath, bool verbose, bool dry, ReportFormat format, {List<String>? ruleFiles, bool builtinRules = true, bool quiet = false, PlatformFactory? platform, String? coverage, bool excludeStrings = false})
Runs the mutation tests using the inputs from inputs. Undetected modifications are written to a file in outputPath using the specified format.

Properties

bar ↔ AppProgressBar
The progress bar printed to the command line.
getter/setter pair
builtinRules ↔ bool
If the builtin rules should be loaded.
getter/setter pair
coverageData ↔ ProjectLineCoverage
getter/setter pair
dry ↔ bool
Performs a dry run - no actual mutations are applied and no test commands are run.
getter/setter pair
excludeStrings ↔ bool
If strings should be excluded.
getter/setter pair
format ↔ ReportFormat
The format in which reports are generated.
getter/setter pair
hashCode → int
The hash code for this object.
no setterinherited
inputs ↔ List<String>
The list of input files.
getter/setter pair
outputPath ↔ String
The path where the reports are generated if the report format is not none.
getter/setter pair
platformFactory ↔ PlatformFactory
Factory creating other objects
getter/setter pair
quiet ↔ bool
If any messages should be printed to the command line.
getter/setter pair
reporter ↔ ReportData
The results of the test run
getter/setter pair
ruleFiles ↔ List<String>?
The list of rule files to load.
getter/setter pair
runtimeType → Type
A representation of the runtime type of the object.
no setterinherited
system ↔ SystemInteractions
Abstraction for the system.
getter/setter pair
total → int
Gets the number of total mutations found. You must call count() or runMutationTest() first.
no setter
verbose ↔ bool
If the test runner should print many messages to the command line.
getter/setter pair

Methods

abortMutationTest() → void
Aborts the tests and restores the original state of the source code.
checkTests(Configuration cfg, TestRunner executor) → Future<void>
Checks if the tests in cfg can be run by the test runner executor on the unmodified sources.
count() → Future<int>
Counts all mutations done by all input files
noSuchMethod(Invocation invocation) → dynamic
Invoked when a nonexistent method or property is accessed.
inherited
runMutationTest() → Future<bool>
Performs the mutation tests asynchronously. The test run uses the options given during construction.
toString() → String
A string representation of this object.
inherited

Operators

operator ==(Object other) → bool
The equality operator.
