Heckle is unit test sadism™ at it’s core. Heckle is a mutation  
tester. It modifies your code and runs your tests to make sure they  
fail. The idea is that if code can be changed and your tests don’t  
notice, either that code isn’t being covered or it doesn’t do anything.

It’s like hiring a white-hat hacker to try to break into your server and  
making sure you detect it. You learn the most by trying to break things  
and watching the outcome in an act of unit test sadism.
