May 30, 2026 Auth code needs 90% mutation coverage. Your string utils don't. Why enforcing a single mutation score across your entire codebase is a mistake, and how to set per-module thresholds that match actual risk. deep-divesmutation-testingauthtest-quality
May 29, 2026 Your Tests Pass. Your Mutation Score Is 40%. Here's What Surviving Mutants Are Actually Telling You. Code coverage says you're safe. Mutation testing says your tests are mostly decoration. Here's how surviving mutants expose the gap, and how to close it. deep-divesmutation-testingsurviving-mutantstest-quality
