Abstract: In EPN (Extended Place/transition Net)-based mutation testing, mutant EPNs need to be created by inserting intended failures into an original EPN, and we develop a tool using a genetic algorithm to generate better mutant EPNs. In the algorithm, a set of mutant EPNs corresponds to a chromosome, and the fitness of each chromosome is evaluated based on an original EPN weighted by metrics. This paper shows the algorithm, the functions of the tool, and the discussion about its effectiveness.
