  🧪 Your tests pass. Your coverage looks great. But are your tests actually catching bugs? At #GoLab2026, Takuma Shibuya will introduce mutation testing in Go: a way to challenge your test suite and reveal the weaknesses that coverage alone can hide. Because 100% coverage doesn't always mean 100% confidence. https://golab.io/talks/your-tests-pass-but-do-they-work-mutation-testing-in-go
