Description

It would be useful for pull requests against Resyntax to run mutation tests. This would make it easier for me to review Copilot pull requests in particular, since it makes it easier to trust the tests it writes. This should be possible with the Stryker platform, a Racket mutation testing library, and some scripting to upload reports from the latter to the former.

No files or tests are named. Start by evaluating the Stryker platform, the Racket mutation testing library, and the pull-request workflow; determine how reports from the library can be uploaded to Stryker. Done means pull requests run mutation tests and make their reports available for review.
