Mutation testing in Elm

I’m coming back to Elm after quite a while and I’m trying to figure out how the language and its environment evolved.

My main question now is: does a mutation testing framework/library exist in Elm?

Never heard of it before. It seems close to Fuzzing. Not the “fuzzing” we have in elm tests though. The one in elm tests refers to property based testing, and I’m referring to the practice of giving all kinds of inputs, even wrong ones to functions and see if it uncovers issues like memory errors and such. Obviously less useful in the context of Elm, but still I don’t think we have that kind of testing in our ecosystem.
