temporal VS Testify

I don't know if I agree with the argument regarding durability vs elastic execution. If I can get both (with a nice API/DX) via something like Temporal (https://github.com/temporalio/temporal), what's the drawback here?

However, as we mentioned, each shard needs management. Part of the management includes a cache of Workflow histories for that shard. We can see the History pods’ memory usage is rising quickly. If the pods run out of memory, Kubernetes will terminate and restart them (OOMKilled). This causes Temporal to rebalance the shards onto the remaining History pod(s), only to then rebalance again once the new History pod comes up. Each time you make a scaling change, be sure to check that all Temporal pods are still within their CPU and memory requests—pods frequently being restarted is very bad for performance! To fix this, we can bump the memory limits for the History containers. Currently, it is hard to estimate the amount of memory a History pod is going to use because the limits are not set per host, or even in MB, but rather as a number of cache entries to store. There is work to improve this: github.com/temporalio/temporal/issues/2941. For now, we’ll set the History memory limit to 8GB and keep an eye on them—we can always raise it later if we find the pod needs more.

Correct, the workflow's guarantee to always complete executing independent of hardware failures is dependent on the database not losing data. You host your workflow code with Temporal's Worker library, which talks to an instance of the Temporal Server [1], which is an open-source set of services (hosted by you or by Temporal Cloud), backed by Cassandra, MySQL, or Postgres. [2] So for instance increasing Cassandra's replication factor increases your resilience to disk failure.

Re:graph frameworks - thanks for the pointers, hadn't heard about them! I'd heard of temporal which I believe provides a similar memoization capability with the purpose of not losing work in workflows that failed partway through?

Documentation

Personally I am leveraging the knowledge and momentum of Replay to dive into the Python SDK, build out a couple of applications to deepen my knowledge around Workflows, Activities, and metrics, and continue inhaling knowledge via the monthly meetup, the application development guide, and documentation. By next year I’ll experience the conference, not as one new to Temporal, but as an expert—maybe even as one of the people helping with the architecture review or running a Birds of a Feather; if anything, I know I look forward to seeing YOU at next year’s event!

I then verify that there are no issues with writing the body with require.NoError() from the testify toolkit. This will ensure the test fails if something happens to go wrong at this point.

For testing purposes, Go provides a go test command that automatically discovers tests within your application and supports features such as caching and code coverage. However, if you require more advanced testing capabilities such as suites or mocking, you will need to install a toolkit like testify. Overall, while Go provides a highly effective testing experience, it's worth noting that writing tests in Python using pytest is arguably one of the most enjoyable testing experiences I have encountered across all programming languages.

Things I can't live without in a new Go project in no particular order:

- https://github.com/golangci/golangci-lint - meta-linter

- https://goreleaser.com - automate release workflows

- https://magefile.org - build tool that can version your tools

- https://github.com/ory/dockertest/v3 - run containers for e2e testing

- https://github.com/ecordell/optgen - generate functional options

- https://golang.org/x/tools/cmd/stringer - generate String()

- https://mvdan.cc/gofumpt - stricter gofmt

- https://github.com/stretchr/testify - test assertion library

- https://github.com/rs/zerolog - logging

- https://github.com/spf13/cobra - CLI framework

FWIW, I just lifted all the tools we use for https://github.com/authzed/spicedb

We've also written some custom linters that might be useful for other folks: https://github.com/authzed/spicedb/tree/main/tools/analyzers

Im thinking in wrap or not the library https://github.com/stretchr/testify to do my tests.

Are you limited to the std lib, or can you use testify? You can require things like require.Error()

IDE: use whatever make you productive. I personally use vscode. VCS: git, as golang communities use github heavily as base for many libraries. AFAIK Linter: use staticcheck for linting as it looks like mostly used linting tool in go, supported by many also. In Vscode it will be recommended once you install go plugin. Libraries/Framework: actually the standard libraries already included many things you need, decent enough for your day-to-day development cycles(e.g. `net/http`). But here are things for extra: - Struct fields validator: validator - Http server lib: chi router , httprouter , fasthttp (for non standard http implementations, but fast) - Web Framework: echo , gin , fiber , beego , etc - Http client lib: most already covered by stdlib(net/http), so you rarely need extra lib for this, but if you really need some are: resty - CLI: cobra - Config: godotenv , viper - DB Drivers: sqlx , postgre , sqlite , mysql - nosql: redis , mongodb , elasticsearch - ORM: gorm , entgo , sqlc(codegen) - JS Transpiler: gopherjs - GUI: fyne - grpc: grpc - logging: zerolog - test: testify , gomock , dockertest - and many others you can find here

To answer OP directly, I am largely quite happy with mockery (and testify) to write expressive tests.
