  • gotests

    Automatically generate Go test boilerplate from your source code.

    I use https://github.com/cweill/gotests to generate the test scaffolding.

  • go-testdeep

    Extremely flexible golang deep comparison, extends the go testing package, tests HTTP APIs and provides tests suite

    Check go-testdeep using its operators, it is very easy to do table driven tests, see https://goplay.space/#Z91D72aH3Sc for an example

  • Mergify

    Updating dependencies is time-consuming.. Solutions like Dependabot or Renovate update but don't merge dependencies. You need to do it manually while it could be fully automated! Add a Merge Queue to your workflow and stop caring about PR management & merging. Try Mergify for free.
