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.

Russ Cox: Go Testing by Example
A huge time-saver for me when generating table-driven test boilerplate in Go has been using gotests[0] to generate the template.
If you use VSCode with the Go extension it's already available there as a command "Go: Generate Unit Tests for Function/Package".

Table-driven tests are overrated.
I believe vscode does it using gotests (https://github.com/cweill/gotests), so people can probably use it outside of vscode too.

[gopher.nvim] Plugin for golang development
What can do this plugin? - Modify struct tags. - Run go get, go mod & go generate commands inside of nvim. - Implement interface by impl. - Generate tests by gotests. - Install required tools for plugin working(by go install).

What is the hardest part of the load/performance testing?
I was just thinking about some smart solutions. For example generating test plan and fake data by inspecting current changes on the code and db schema. Just like this https://github.com/cweill/gotests but for performance test plans.

Take on a better unit test style
Did you encounter gotests when you were doing your research? It's a table test generation tool that generates test code using t.Run(). I do wish it could generate tests using testify, because I frequently end up rewriting the code in the inner loop, but I still use it because it's better than I am about ensuring there's a test for all functions I write.

Mastering Golang Debugging in Emacs
Debug both standard applications and Ginkgo tests (this is what I'm using at the moment 🤷)

Go-DOM - 1st major milestone
Let's explore a simple test, as it looks now in the code base (the code uses Ginkgo and Gomega, a somewhat overlooked combination IMHO)

Show HN: Gomponents, HTML components in pure Go
It's the same with the Ginkgo testing library: "After the package books_test declaration we import the ginkgo and gomega packages into the test's top-level namespace by performing a . dot-import. Since Ginkgo and Gomega are DSLs this makes the tests more natural to read."

Leverage Your Test Suite With testcontainers-go & docker-compose
The ginkgo testing framework helps us in building the test suite. It's entirely written in Go. Furthermore, it provides a CLI utility to set up and run the tests. Since we will use it later, let's download it from here. You can download it in two ways:
-
Writing tests for a Kubernetes Operator
Ginkgo: a testing framework based on the concept of "Behavior Driven Development" (BDD)
-
We moved our Cloud operations to a Kubernetes Operator
We were also able to leverage Ginkgo's parallel testing runtime to run our integration tests on multiple concurrent processes. This provided multiple benefits: we could run our entire integration test suite in under 10 minutes and also reuse the same suite to load test the operator in a production-like environment. Using these tests, we were able to identify hot spots in the code that needed further optimization and experimented with ways to save API calls to ease the load on our own Kubernetes API server while also staying under various AWS rate limits. It was only after running these tests over and over again that I felt confident enough to deploy the operator to our dev and prod clusters.

Recommendations for Learning Test-Driven Development (TDD) in Go?
A bit off-topic, but i really like the ginkgo BDD framework

Start test names with “should” (2020)
You obviously are not familiar with the third circle of golang continuous integration hell that is ginkgo+gomega:
https://onsi.github.io/ginkgo/#adding-specs-to-a-suite
It’s actually worse than that example suggests. Stuff like Expect(“type safety”).ShouldBe(GreaterThan(13)) throws runtime errors.
The semantics of parallel test runs weren’t defined anywhere the last time I checked.
Anyway, you’ll be thinking back fondly to the days of TestShouldReplaceChildrenWhenUpdatingInstance because now you need to write nested function calls like:
Context(“instances”, func …)
Describe(“that are being updated”, …)
Expect(“should replace children”, …)
And to invoke that from the command line, you need to write a regex against whatever undocumented and unprinted string it internally concatenates together to uniquely describe the test.
Also, they dump color codes to stdout without checking that they are writing to a terminal, so there will be line noise all over whatever automated test logs you produce, or if you pipe stdout to a file.
