Project mention: Show HN: Caffeine, minimum viable back end for prototyping | news.ycombinator.com | 2021-11-16
Very cool. You could simplify the tests by using testify [0] assertions and possibly a test suite. Then it'd be easier to add additional test cases.

For a generic usecase, do you see Go-convey adding any benefit over simple golang t.Run?

Scout APM
Scout APM: A developer's best friend. Try free for 14-days. Scout APM uses tracing logic that ties bottlenecks to source code so you know the exact line of code causing performance issues and can get back to building a great product faster.

Project mention: Testza - A modern test framework with pretty output | reddit.com/r/golang | 2021-08-25
What are people’s thoughts on testing frameworks? I’ve heard that most devs only use the testing package in the standard library and the testify package for assertions— I assume this is because Go is meant to be lightweight and scalable, and adding external dependencies basically goes against that. But I’ve also seen devs use packages like ginkgo to make tests more structured and readable. What do you guys think?

Gauge is a Behavior Driven Java testing framework launched by ThoughtWorks.Inc. This is also one of the best Java Testing Frameworks, which allows software engineers to develop automated frameworks and speed up the software development procedure.

When I use functional arguments, I either prefix all of the options with the same prefix or put them in a dedicated package (like cmpopts) to help the IDE.

Gomega is a Go library that allows you to make assertions. In our example, we check if what we got is null, not null, or equal to an exact value, but the gomega library is much richer than that.

Project mention: What are the REST API reference projects that can be used as a guide in 2021? | reddit.com/r/golang | 2021-11-24
However your point is valid. Check matryer/is for unit test writing. DATA-DOG/go-sqlmock to test database interactions.

Terraform providers are tested this way (separate cloud account w/ create/destroy) paired with VCR to record and replay the HTTP requests.

Project mention: Ask HN: What are some tools / libraries you built yourself? | news.ycombinator.com | 2021-05-16
I built an alternative to Make written in Go that is simpler to use and cross-platform: https://taskfile.dev/
Also, a library to write tests with databases for Go: https://github.com/go-testfixtures/testfixtures

gnomock
Test your code without writing mocks with ephemeral Docker containers 📦 Setup popular services with just a couple lines of code ⏱️ No bash, no yaml, only code 💻
You could check out Gnomock (https://github.com/orlangure/gnomock). It offers a different approach than what you asked, but maybe it'll suit your use case. It allows to easily setup a real DB like postgres in a docker container and then delete ot when tests are done.
