Answer / nitin verma
In mutation testing we create a duplicate copy of the code
that is called as mutant and do some changes in the codes
in the mutant copy and then we test and check weather the
changes are been detected or not and whether it is creating
any effect on the original copy of the code or not.
Plz correct me if i m wrong.

Nitin

Mutation Testing is the correctness of a testing program,
you will need to observe the behavior for each test case. If
there are no detected faults, then the program is correct or
it passes the test. A test case is the set of input values
to the program under test and the corresponding output values
