Description
I configured in my project ApprovalTest for unit testing, and mutmut for mutation testing.
Unfortunately they don't seem to work well together.
I originally reported the issue in the mutmut repo but was mentioned that there might be a too simplified check in the assertion of multiple verify execution.
Is there any available workaround that would let me still use the two libraries together?

Research direction
Start by reproducing the interaction between ApprovalTests for Python and mutmut using the configuration described in the issue. Inspect the assertion handling for multiple verify executions, as the linked mutmut discussion suggests it may be too simplified. Done means identifying a compatible workaround or a confirmed change needed for the two tools to work together.
