Arithmetic operator mutators
arithmetic_operators.RdReturns a ready-made list of operator() mutators covering common
arithmetic swaps: +/-, *//, ^/*, %%/*, %/%//.
Value
A list of operator() mutators.
Details
Use on any file that performs calculations. A surviving mutant from this
preset typically means an assertion checks a property of the result (sign,
order) rather than a specific value — replacing expect_gte() with
expect_equal() and a computed expected value usually kills it.

and a worked example showing the direction-insensitive assertion pattern.

diagnose survivors and fix the underlying test weakness.
