Mocking database calls without a library?
then just replace whole function, don't generate manually the mock '__') or it would get out of hand fast, you can just use codegen that static typed like https://github.com/maxbrunsfeld/counterfeiter
-
Is this a good way to make sure that a mocked function is called inside the Unit Test?
Yes, that's a good way to do that; there are a lot of packages that allow you to mock and spy the calls if you're looking for one that generates the code for you I can recommend counterfeiter, I also have a short blog that covers it.
-
Libraries you use most of your projects?
I prefer https://github.com/maxbrunsfeld/counterfeiter
-
How do you write/generate mocks for testing?
counterfeiter is another tool, it creates mocks, stubs and spies; here is a short blog I wrote covering it.

Best/Easiest Rest Framework
for dependency injection I suggest you use https://github.com/maxbrunsfeld/counterfeiter, but if you using really fast database (that can spawn fast using docker and has fast trx/sec) you can use it directly without dependency injection with https://github.com/ory/dockertest

Migrating from NodeJS/Typescript into Golang. Any advise for big web application?
Agree with u/mmknightx there is a tool that assist in creating fake or mock classes for your interfaces https://github.com/maxbrunsfeld/counterfeiter
-
How do you control behaviour in mocked interface ?
Another alternative to use would be counterfeiter, it generates a type from your interface that could be used as a mock, stub or spy. I wrote a short post covering that tool if you're interested.

Testcontainers
I am using https://github.com/ory/dockertest for tests, specifically for databases. Is there any advantage to use Testcontainers?
-
Level UP your RDBMS Productivity in GO
Now, let's run the tests. For this purpose, we are going to use dockertest, but test containers is also a good solution.

Golang testing using docker services via dockertest
During my path learning go so far I have come across some amazing libraries and utilites, one of my favourite for integration testing is dockertest.

How to start a Go project in 2023
Things I can't live without in a new Go project in no particular order:
- https://github.com/golangci/golangci-lint - meta-linter
- https://goreleaser.com - automate release workflows
- https://magefile.org - build tool that can version your tools
- https://github.com/ory/dockertest/v3 - run containers for e2e testing
- https://github.com/ecordell/optgen - generate functional options
- https://golang.org/x/tools/cmd/stringer - generate String()
- https://mvdan.cc/gofumpt - stricter gofmt
- https://github.com/stretchr/testify - test assertion library
- https://github.com/rs/zerolog - logging
- https://github.com/spf13/cobra - CLI framework
FWIW, I just lifted all the tools we use for https://github.com/authzed/spicedb
We've also written some custom linters that might be useful for other folks: https://github.com/authzed/spicedb/tree/main/tools/analyzers

I've used dockertest a bunch and it is really amazing.

How to unit test your database interactions with Docker
Reminds me of https://github.com/ory/dockertest
-
When to mock and what to mock in a Web API?
If your project is relatively simple and you can get away with recreating your scenarios against a real mock database and run other related services locally. It would be good to setup docker containers for your test scripts and write e2e tests. I believe e2e tests are harder but more useful in understanding/reasoning how users are impacted.

Don't Mock the Database
Just a heads up, the repository in your comment is invalid, the correct link is https://github.com/ory/dockertest
-
Mocking database calls without a library?
Don't mock. Use https://github.com/ory/dockertest to actually run tests against a dockerized DB.

Different SQL drivers for test and production
Use a library like ory/dockertest to spin up a test database for integration tests. It's easy to use, and tests are still fast. It'll take a minute to download the mysql docker image the first time. But, once it's been downloaded, starting the db, running migrations, and running the tests is still pretty quick.
