Code coverage vs mutation testing.
You should only really care about mutation testing if your code coverage is relatively high. If your code coverage is 20% then mutation testing should not be your priority. We use mutation testing (mutant for Ruby, pitest for Java). mutant is pretty hassle-free but only works when running under MRI so if you use jruby you are out of luck. pitest was far less easy to integrate.
