Description
Testza is a full-featured testing framework for Go.
It integrates with the default test runner, so you can use it with the standard go test
tool.
Testza contains easy to use methods, like assertions, output capturing, mocking, and much more.
The main goal of testza is to provide an easy and fun experience writing tests and providing a nice, user-friendly output. Even developers who never used testza, will get into it quickly.
Getting Started
See the examples below for a quick introduction!
// --- Some Examples ---
// - Some assertions -
testza.AssertTrue(t, true) // -> Pass
testza.AssertNoError(t, err) // -> Pass
testza.AssertEqual(t, object, object) // -> Pass
// ...
// - Testing console output -
// Test the output of your CLI tool easily!
terminalOutput, _ := testza.CaptureStdout(func(w io.Writer) error {fmt.Println("Hello"); return nil})
testza.AssertEqual(t, terminalOutput, "Hello\n") // -> Pass
// - Mocking -
// Testing a function that accepts email addresses as a parameter:
// Testset of many different email addresses
emailAddresses := testza.MockStringEmailAddresses()
// Run a test for every string in the test set
testza.MockStringRunTests(t, emailAddresses, func(t *testing.T, index int, str string) {
user, domain, err := internal.ParseEmailAddress(str) // Use your function
testza.AssertNoError(t, err) // Assert that your function does not return an error
testza.AssertNotZero(t, user) // Assert that the user is returned
testza.AssertNotZero(t, domain) // Assert that the domain is returned
})
// And that's just a few examples of what you can do with Testza!

Assert
AssertCompletesIn
func AssertCompletesIn(t testRunner, duration time.Duration, f func(), msg ...interface{})

Snapshot
SnapshotCreate
func SnapshotCreate(name string, snapshotObject interface{}) error
SnapshotCreate creates a snapshot of an object, which can be validated in future test runs. Using this function directly will override previous snapshots with the same name. You most likely want to use SnapshotCreateOrValidate.
NOTICE: \r\n will be replaced with \n to make the files consistent between operating systems.
Example:
testza.SnapshotCreate(t.Name(), objectToBeSnapshotted)
SnapshotCreateOrValidate
func SnapshotCreateOrValidate(t testRunner, name string, object interface{}, msg ...interface{}) error
SnapshotCreateOrValidate creates a snapshot of an object which can be used in future test runs. It is good practice to name your snapshots the same as the test they are created in. You can do that automatically by using t.Name() as the second parameter, if you are using the inbuilt test system of Go. If a snapshot already exists, the function will not create a new one, but validate the exisiting one. To re-create a snapshot, you can delete the according file in /testdata/snapshots/.
NOTICE: \r\n will be replaced with \n to make the files consistent between operating systems.
Example:
testza.SnapshotCreateOrValidate(t, t.Name(), object)
testza.SnapshotCreateOrValidate(t, t.Name(), object, "Optional Message")
SnapshotValidate
func SnapshotValidate(t testRunner, name string, actual interface{}, msg ...interface{}) error
SnapshotValidate validates an already exisiting snapshot of an object. You most likely want to use SnapshotCreateOrValidate.
NOTICE: \r\n will be replaced with \n to make the files consistent between operating systems.
Example:
testza.SnapshotValidate(t, t.Name(), objectToBeValidated)
testza.SnapshotValidate(t, t.Name(), objectToBeValidated, "Optional message")
