There are not particularly bad parts. Overall the book is well written and organized. Moreover, Since it is also an open-source material, many readers have contributed to the contents of the book(including a few of mine :)). I hope there are more books like this for other languages such as Rust or Python.
Project mention: Speedbump – a TCP proxy to simulate variable network latency | news.ycombinator.com | 2024-01-16Checkout also shopify's awesome tool called toxiproxy: https://github.com/Shopify/toxiproxy
It turns out to be also a very good way to test a networking library by implementing it. Since your stack needs to be able to basically handle most adverse events properly.
The idea behind 'chaos engineering' is cool.
I have always liked to use the similar GoConvey tool for automatic test runs during development, but it has definitely started to “show its age” and since Go 1.20 it hasn’t been able to parse code coverage correctly. So, I decided to dive into making my own tool to replace it for me.
Ginkgo: a testing framework based on the concept of "Behavior Driven Development" (BDD)
Terratest is a Go library that provides tools and patterns for testing infrastructure, with first-class support for Terraform, Packer, Docker, Kubernetes, and more. It's used to write automated tests for your infrastructure code.
Project mention: Seeking advice on implementing a tinyurl-like service using Go and gRPC. | /r/golang | 2023-05-24Hello, Those interviews are even crazy for internship. Anyway 1. Try to find a simple CRUD example online. You can check [this](https://tutorialedge.net/golang/go-grpc-beginners-tutorial/) 2. For logging you can check [go-grpc-middleware](https://github.com/grpc-ecosystem/go-grpc-middleware) 3. You can grpc-gateway in case they want some REST endpoints too 4. Use base62 to encode your url. So at least 2 columns in your table **shortenedUrl** and **url** 5. For such a project no need to use an ORM ( it's not advised anyway ). Implement 2 functions, one to insert into the db and the other one to read from the db. Remember to use transaction though 5. For unit tests go with the standard library and mock the 2 functions ( erroneous and valid cases )
Project mention: How do you unit-test code that reaches out to the db, without introducing interfaces everywhere? | /r/golang | 2023-08-16
I'm far too lazy to write mocks by hand in go. You can generate a mock for a given interface with mockery https://github.com/vektra/mockery
Certain checks may be possible with goss and the kgoss wrapper: https://github.com/goss-org/goss/tree/master/extras/kgoss
Project mention: Automated Unit Test Improvement Using Large Language Models at Meta | news.ycombinator.com | 2024-02-17https://arxiv.org/abs/2402.09171 :
> This paper describes Meta's TestGen-LLM tool, which uses LLMs to automatically improve existing human-written tests. TestGen-LLM verifies that its generated test classes successfully clear a set of filters that assure measurable improvement over the original test suite, thereby eliminating problems due to LLM hallucination. [...] We believe this is the first report on industrial scale deployment of LLM-generated code backed by such assurances of code improvement.
Coverage-guided unit test improvement might [with LLMs] be efficient too.
https://github.com/topics/coverage-guided-fuzzing :
- e.g. Google/syzkaller is a coverage-guided syscall fuzzer: https://github.com/google/syzkaller
- Gitlab CI supports coverage-guided fuzzing: https://docs.gitlab.com/ee/user/application_security/coverag...
- oss-fuzz, osv
Additional ways to improve tests:
Hypothesis and pynguin generate tests from type annotations.
There are various tools to generate type annotations for Python code;
> pytype (Google) [1], PyAnnotate (Dropbox) [2], and MonkeyType (Instagram) [3] all do dynamic / runtime PEP-484 type annotation type inference [4] to generate type annotations. https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=39139198
icontract-hypothesis generates tests from icontract DbC Design by Contract type, value, and invariance constraints specified as precondition and postcondition @decorators:
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".

I have tried the following. 1. Login to Okta via browser programatically using go-rod. Which I managed to do so successfully, but I'm failing to load up Slack as it's stuck in the browser loader screen for Slack. 2. I tried to authenticate via Okta RESTful API. So far, I have managed to authenticate using {{domain}}/api/v1/authn, and then subsequently using MFA via the verify endpoint {{domain}}/api/v1/authn/factors/{{factorID}}/verify which returns me a sessionToken. From here, I can successfully create a sessionCookie which have proven quite useless to me. Perhaps I am doing it wrongly.
I used this method successfully for my qjson package . It accepts as input a human readable json. It detected a condition I forgot to check in a few minutes. I used the go fuzzer go-fuzz from Dmitry Vyukov. Check the impressive list of trophies at the end of the README. These are bugs found by the fuzzer.
I am using https://github.com/ory/dockertest for tests, specifically for databases. Is there any advantage to use Testcontainers?
October is the month of Open Source and Keploy is taking part in this celebration. You can contribute to several Keploy projects by participating in this year’s Hacktoberfest. You can both contribute to the code part and the no-code part as well. Here are some contributions that you can make!
Let's first look at the original version of the test, in this case, an end-to-end, using testcontainers.
Project mention: Python-Selenium-Action: Run Selenium with Python via Github Actions using Headless or Non-Headless browsers! | /r/Python | 2023-05-03Selenium is cool but https://gauge.org/ really cuts down on the boilerplate and is a lot more lightweight, may want to give it a look too
