pitest generates unhelpful mutations when using Kotlin's coroutines

This Kotlin code sample that uses coroutines:

private fun test() {
    GlobalScope.launch {
    }
}

Will create bunch of replaced equality check with false mutations, even though there are no equality checks in actual kotlin code.

This was reproduced with Android fork of the pitest gradle plugin v0.1.9, which uses 1.4.0 pitest version and ALL operators enabled.

I’ve been toying with the idea of some sort support subscription that could fund development

I’d be interested to see that. Open source projects really do need a source of funding. The work you do has value.

The Arcmutate kotlin plugin now provides support for coroutines
