> mature tools exist—for statically typed languages, such as Java

Is that really a thing Java developers use? I am one, I remember doing a PoC with Jtest (now Parasoft) in 2008, and it was utterly useless, never come across any such since, I'd be genuinely interested to learn more (I'll go duckduckgo now).



They probably refer to EvoSuite, which is/was mainly developed by one of the authors of the paper: https://www.evosuite.org/


Maybe it's a reference to the compiler or the plethora of internal and paid tools out there in the enterprise world.
