Employing Dynamic Symbolic Execution for Equivalent Mutant Detection

Equivalent mutants (EM) issue is a key challenge in mutation testing. Many methods were applied for detecting and reducing the equivalent mutants. These methods are classified into four classes: equivalent mutant detection, avoiding the generation of equivalent mutants, higher-order equivalent mutan...
