goroq
Goroq is a tool for assisting with Go testing. It will watch over a number of Go project dirs and automatically run tests, whenever a change is detected.
The output of the tests can be configured to be written to any file, so that you can keep a cotinuous tail -f running in a separate window.
Usage
Using goroq is super simple. Run it with no arguments and it will do all of the heavy lifting.
$ go get github.com/dselans/goroq
$ goroq
>> First time running goroq
>> Updated goroq configuration in ~/.goroqrc
>> Monitoring test changes in <current_dir>
>> Outputting test results to <current_dir>/goroq.log
>> Daemonizing...
$
Additional params:
$ goreq -h
Usage: ./goreq [-h|-v|] [-d directory] [-o output_file] [-c config_file]
Install
Assuming you have setup GOPATH:
go get github.com/dselans/goroq
Misc
Goroq uses fsnotify for detecting file changes (both in tests and its own configuration).
While similar projects exist (goconvey, looper), this seemed like a fun project to get some more Go experience.
