How to mock database calls
I'm the author of https://github.com/go-testfixtures/testfixtures, a library written to make it easier to write tests with a real database and test data. You might want to use it together with docker-compose, for example.

Ask HN: What are some tools / libraries you built yourself?
I built an alternative to Make written in Go that is simpler to use and cross-platform: https://taskfile.dev/
Also, a library to write tests with databases for Go: https://github.com/go-testfixtures/testfixtures
What are some alternatives?

Gauge - Light weight cross-platform test automation
ginkgo - A Modern Testing Framework for Go
Hamcrest - Hamcrest matchers for the Go programming language
gomega - Ginkgo's Preferred Matcher Library
GoAws - AWS (SQS/SNS) Clone for Development testing
httpmock - HTTP mocking for Golang
embedded-postgres - Run a real Postgres database locally on Linux, OSX or Windows as part of another Go application or test
GoSpec - Testing framework for Go. Allows writing self-documenting tests/specifications, and executes them concurrently and safely isolated. [UNMAINTAINED]
assert - :exclamation:Basic Assertion Library used along side native go testing, with building blocks for custom assertions
