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.

gotest.tools
A collection of packages to augment the go testing package and support common patterns.
Assertion libraries that people seem to love: - testify (my favorite) - go-cmp is a more barebones library - gotest.tools -- I have never used this but some swear by it

Project mention: testing utility for time manipulation and pretty printing | reddit.com/r/golang | 2022-08-12
One of them focuses on time manipulation for testing purposes: - Freeze time to a specific point. - Travel back to a specific time, but allow time to continue moving forward. - Scale time by a given scaling factor will cause the time to move at an accelerated pace. - No dependencies other than the stdlib - Nested calls to timecop.Travel is supported - Works with any regular Go projects
