Go generics beyond the playground
We have to pass in the t parameter. It's a minor inconvenience, but enough for Dave Cheney to write a quite interesting package for solving it. Not recommended for production use, I might add.

Go generics beyond the playground
In this article, I will go through how I re-wrote a test matching library from scratch with generics as part of the tool-box. My hope is that this will inspire you to do your own experiments with Go generics beyond the playground and write something potentially useful. Only then, can we truly see if generics itself, is going to be useful in Go. If you want, you could use the library in this article for testing your experiments; or you can extend the library and do a pull request.
What are some alternatives?
When comparing expect and subx you can also consider the following projects:
go - The Go programming language
Testify - A toolkit with common assertions and mocks that plays nicely with the standard library
gomega - Ginkgo's Preferred Matcher Library
subtest - A utility for generating runnable sub-tests in Go
