Stars - the number of stars that a project has on GitHub. Growth - month over month growth in stars.
Activity is a relative number indicating how actively a project is being developed. Recent commits have higher weight than older ones.
For example, an activity of 9.0 indicates that a project is amongst the top 10% of the most actively developed projects that we are tracking.

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

Beginner-friendly API made with Go following hexagonal architecture.
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.

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.
- Mocking Interfaces in Go with GoMock
- What's the best approach for mocking a function /method?
-
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.
