A simple app that returns delayed results.

turtle

A simple Golang web app that returns delayed results.

Motivation

The intent of this application is that sometimes when you're writing tests, you might have a test that timesout and doesn't wait long enough. To specifically test these kinds of tests, this application is specifically slow so that you can test timeout issues.

[I wrote a PHP web page specifically for this issue, but nice to have a native Golang version as well.]

To Run

This is a golang application. You can run the app with:

$ PORT=8070 go run main.go

To Do

• Allow port to be specified in a 12-Factor way
• Refactor code to conform to golint suggestions
• Run go fmt to clean up code formatting
• Allow timeout to be specified
