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.

Creating an API using Go and sqlc
For that, I used the lib go-sqlmock. So, for example, the following snippet is part of the person/service_test.go file:

Using SQLC in project how do I mock database Calls with it for unit testing?
I’m writing a post about it! I will post soon, but you can use https://github.com/DATA-DOG/go-sqlmock to mock your database calls
It's not the right call IMO to skip mocking the database connection to achieve 100% test coverage. How your app will behave in failure scenarios that are impossible to imitate during integration tests is part of the software contract. If your choice is to panic, or return an error, document that by testing that behavior. If another dev, or future you inadvertently breaks the contract, the test suite will fail. That's what you want. For unit tests against your database you should be using either go-sqlmock if testing against database/sql or pgxmock if testing against pgx. That being said, the points raised elsewhere in this thread regarding unit tests potentially hiding edge cases in terms of how an actual database will interact with your application that are not reflective of your understanding when writing mocks are 100% valid. You should do both. Unit test your app and write integration tests as well. On my team, we run integration tests using docker-compose.

Can you set expectations for SQL transaction using Testify?
I use Sqlmock for that purpose

Mocking database queries - ask for opinion
I use https://github.com/DATA-DOG/go-sqlmock for unit testing my data layer code. Most of the times, these tests help me to find errors whenever I do a refactor on the data layer, so I consider it a good safety net

[HELP] Testing SQL queries and functions that use SQL queries in Golang.
For testing DB queries I use https://github.com/DATA-DOG/go-sqlmock for unit tests. I then have a separate integration test suite that runs against all our services using Docker.
