GoCoverStats v0.0.5 is a security release #test #testing #security

Mon, 14 Nov 2022 08:49:00 +0000

The gocoverstats package just got a v0.0.5 security release on its golang.org dependencies and a minor change:

golang.org/x/tools upgraded from v0.1.10 to v0.2 (security release on tools/crypto)
github.com/google/go-cmp upgraded from 0.5.8 to 0.5.9 (test dependency non-security release)

One clarification about the default build is that, since it requires at least Go 1.18, paths and symbols are trimmed in the compiled output.

Go fuzz – Randomized testing for Go #testing #fuzzing

Sun, 04 Oct 2015 20:30:00 +0000

Go-fuzz is a coverage-guided fuzzing solution for testing of Go packages. Fuzzing is mainly applicable to packages that parse complex inputs (both text and binary), and is especially useful for hardening of systems that parse inputs from potentially malicious users (e.g. anything accepted over a network). 12 points posted by gopher

Mockingjay - define the contract between a consumer and producer #testing

Sat, 21 Jan 2017 23:36:00 +0000

Mockingjay makes it really easy to check your HTTP integration points. It's fast, requires no coding and is better than other solutions because it will ensure your mock servers and real integration points are consistent so that you never have a green build but failing software. 6 points posted by daenney

Gomatch

Library created for testing JSON against patterns. The goal was to be able to validate JSON focusing only on parts essential in given test case so tests are more expressive and less fragile. It can be used with both unit tests and functional tests. 4 points posted by jfilipczyk

tester - Lightweight utilities to use with Go's testing package #testing

Tue, 07 Mar 2017 02:41:00 +0000

Testing is an integral part of Go; the language provides strong and opinionated support for testing. However, developers who moved from languages like C#, Java, and Python miss the convenience of test utilities like assertions and data providers for data-driven tests. That's why we started Tester: lightweight test utilities to use with Go's testing package. Features: * Assertions that make tests easier to read, write, and debug * Streamlined data providers for data-driven testing (DDT) * Test hooks' hygiene check 2 points posted by Mohamed El-Geish

How to debug a second test run ? #test #testing #delve #goland #debugging

Thu, 09 Jun 2022 11:22:00 +0000

Sometimes, tests can succeed on the first run and fail on subsequent ones, or with the -shuffle flag. But then, how can one debug them using the builtin Delve in GoLand while run configurations only run tests once ? 1 points posted by FGM
