Gokiburi: Automatic Test Runs for Go Projects
I have always liked to use the similar GoConvey tool for automatic test runs during development, but it has definitely started to “show its age” and since Go 1.20 it hasn’t been able to parse code coverage correctly. So, I decided to dive into making my own tool to replace it for me.

Is there a more detailed test coverage report than go test -cover?
IIRC you can use http://goconvey.co/ just for the reports

Do you prefer go-convey over golang's t.Run?
For a generic usecase, do you see Go-convey adding any benefit over simple golang t.Run?

What's your favourite part of unit testing?
I also use BDD (Gherkin with godog in particular) to verify and document the expected behaviour of a product from an end user's perspective when needed. I usually do this when the product also contains untested code that I have no control over when I'm working on a problem - this gives me peace of mind over something I can't control while doubling as documentation.
