program and having the effects of that change show up in
some test?

Answer Posted / saurabh nayak

Answer among the given Options
A. Introducing mutations
B. Performance testing
C. A mutation error
D. Debugging a program

A.Introducing mutations

As mutation testing means testing of the code having single
or some syntactic changes. For e.g.
If(x<Y) then print"hello" Else print "bye".
This line of code os mutant by
If (y<z) then Print "Hello" else print "bye"
Here x is replaced by y and y is replaced by z.
more e.g.
The variable can e replaced with constant.
Change in the operators e.g. && replaced by ||, etc.
