Exclude mutator for class or method

See original GitHub issue

How to exclude some mutator by name for method, class or package?

Since the latest version of ROR mutations survive for trivial code: ... if (this.isValid()) ...

equal to less or equal → SURVIVED

I would like to exclude a mutation for the method, because changing the test code to kill this mutation seems strange to me. Maybe I misunderstand something…

Thanks!

I’m sorry for the late reply. I think you are right - this is a bad idea. My original problem was also solved - the mutation probably survived during testing with the beta version of JUnit. I think this issue should be closed.

@maxgabut @rnveach I’m getting the same mutation surviving for a similar if condition: if Object.isNull(var). Is PIT 1.6.5 replacing var == null with var <= null? If so, that should be a compilation error, right, and hence ignored by PIT? Isn’t this a bug?
