Must: when you don't need error handling
I recently wrote a panic on error and other assertions library taking advantage of go generics. It's useful for short cutting error handling in service initialization, test setup, and simple runtime assertions. Looking for feed back.

Explanation of context in go?
If I may be so bold to plug my own work. This package uses context's value storage feature quite a bit (see context.go) to offer APIs that can add custom data for diagnostics and observability purposes. The values stored in the context are used not for application logic, but to potentially attach to an error report. Particularly useful in middleware handlers.
What are some alternatives?
gotest.tools - A collection of packages to augment the go testing package and support common patterns.
errors - A drop-in replacement for Go errors, with some added sugar! Unwrap user-friendly messages, HTTP status code, easy wrapping with multiple error types.
test - A modern generic testing assertions library for Go
go-ez - An experimental Go package that allows you to write less error handling and makes the logic look simpler and clearer.
eris - Error handling library with readable stack traces and flexible formatting support 🎆
watcher - watcher is a Go package for watching for files or directory changes without using filesystem events.
