dockertest
Write better integration tests! Dockertest helps you boot up ephermal docker images for your Go tests with minimal work.
Please refer to the full example code for more details.
We have different ways to write our tests depending on what datastore we are using, for example if we are testing database calls that happen to be using database/sql then importing a package like github.com/DATA-DOG/go-sqlmock could work.
In cases where there's no de-facto package used for mocking calls, we could define our own interface type that happens to be defining the concrete calls we use in your code, for example if we are planning to mock memcached calls and github.com/bradfitz/gomemcache it's being used, then something like the following could work:
There's no excuse not to use github.com/ory/dockertest when working with datastores in Go. ory/dockertest simplifies integration tests and reduces the dependencies needed when running our tests because only Docker is required in those cases.
