Stryker Mutation Testing Skill
Overview
This skill provides expert-level capabilities for Stryker-based mutation testing, enabling test quality assessment by introducing code mutations and measuring test effectiveness.
Capabilities
Mutation Execution
- Configure Stryker for JavaScript/TypeScript
- Execute mutation testing runs
- Configure mutation operators
Score Analysis
- Analyze mutation score
- Track killed vs survived mutants
- Identify weak test assertions
Configuration
- Configure mutators and test runners
- Set up file patterns for mutation
- Configure timeout settings
Reporting
- Generate HTML mutation reports
- Dashboard integration for tracking
- CI/CD report generation
Optimization
- Configure incremental mutation testing
- Optimize mutation runs for large codebases
- Parallel mutation execution
Test Quality Insights
- Identify gaps in test coverage
- Recommend assertion improvements
- Prioritize test enhancements

Usage Example
{
kind: 'skill',
skill: {
name: 'stryker-mutation',
context: {
action: 'execute',
configFile: 'stryker.conf.json',
mutate: ['src/**/*.ts'],
thresholds: {
high: 80,
low: 60,
break: 50
}
}
}
}
Configuration
The skill uses stryker.conf.json or stryker.conf.js and supports incremental testing for faster feedback.
