We are excited to share that Pest 3 is now available! Get started with mutation testing today and level up your existing projects by finding untested code. Create consistent code with popular architecture presets, team management, a new configuration API, and more:

Team Management

A new feature that allows you to manage tasks and todos with your team directly from the console.

New Features in Pest 3

  • Mutation Testing: An innovative new technique that introduces small changes to your code to see if your tests catch them.
  • Arch Presets: A set of predefined rules that you can use to test your application's architecture.
  • New Configuration API: A new configuration API that is more intuitive and easier to use.
  • More Architectural Testing Improvements: New expectations, @pest-arch-ignore-line, and more.
  • And Much More...: Constants in Type Coverage, static analysis improvements, and more.

Check out the official announcement post for in-depth coverage of these exciting new features.
