  • Run a normal test without modifications with coverage enabled
  • Mark things that are not covered as mutations that can never be killed
  • Only look with mutators through covered lines
  • Every mutator updates the coverage information -> a mutation that could not be killed -> no need to test here with other mutators
  • This makes it also necessary to order the mutators e.g. branch before statement before expression
