IS Mutation testin and error seeding the same....if not can anyone tell me the difference???..

Answer / supriya

Its almost the same
Mutation Testing : introduces MODIFICATIONS to the 'system
under test 'that would insert defects into that and then
the same tests (applied for the sytem) are applied to the
modified system to find out the bug

Error Seeding.- It deliberetly introduces DEFECTS or BUgs
into the sytem before the testing is started
