This will be a short presentation explaining the idea of *mutation testing* - an interesting approach to testing tests. I will go through the general concept of mutation testing, some simple examples of mutations and point out a few libraries that you can use. Examples will be in Python, however no prior knowledge of Python is required (examples will be dead simple). Presentation should take between 10 and 15 minutes..
